1. Analysis of the effect of transactions on the accounting equation:

Assets  = Liabilities + Equity

Assets (Cash) increases +$52,500 and Assets (Accounts Receivable) decreases -$52,500 = Liabilities + Equity.

b. Assets (Cash) increases +$235,000 = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings) increase + $235,000.

c. Assets (Equipment) increases +41,900; Cash decreases -$12,000 = Liabilities (Notes Payable) increase +$29,900 + Equity.

d. Assets (Cash) decreases -$15,600 = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings) decrease - $15,600.

e. Assets (Cash) increases + $50,500 and (Accounts Receivable) increases + $50,500 = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings) increase + $101,000.

f. Assets = Liabilities (Accounts Payable) increase +$5,900 + Equity (Retained Earnings) decrease -$5,900.

g. Assets (Cash) decreases - $310,000 = Liabilities + Equity (Retained Earnings) decreases - $310,000.

h. Assets (Supplies) increase + $5,100 = Liabilities (Accounts Payable) increase +$5,100 + Equity.

i. Assets (Cash) decreases - $5,100 = Liabilities (Accounts Payable) decrease - $5,100 + Equity.
