Respuesta :

Answer:

Liabilities = 331,100

Explanation:

Using the accounting equation we can solve for liabilities

assets = liabilities + equity

We have to solve for Equity first:

SE 13,500

net income 10,000

dividends (3,500)

Total Equity 20,000

assets 351,100

Next we post this know value on the formula and solve for liab:

Assets = Liablities + Equity

351,100 = Liab + 20,000

351,100 - 20,000 = Liab

Liabilities = 331,100
