Therefore, the value of sales revenue is $4,800.

Working notes:

Calculate the value of ending stockholder’s equity.

Ending stockholder's equity = Ending assets- Ending liabilties=$30,000$17,300=$12,700 (1)

Calculate the value of beginning stockholder’s equity.

Beginning stockholder's equity = Beginning  assets- Beginning liabilties=$38,000$18,600=$19,400 (2)

(b)

Calculate the ending liability:

Ending liabilities}={Ending assets  – Stockholders' equity (4)}=$36,000  $17,000=$19,000

Therefore, the value of ending liability is $19,000.

Working notes:

Calculate the value of beginning stockholders equity.

Beginning stockholders’ equity}=Beginning assets – Beginning liabilities=$12,000  $5,000=$7,000 (3)

Calculate the value of ending stockholders equity.

Ending  stockholders' equity}={Beginning stockholders’ equity (3) + Common stock + Sales revenue –Expenses – Dividends}=($7,000+$4,500+$28,000$1,500$21,000)=$17,000 (4)

Therefore, the value of common stock is $(5,000).

Working notes:

Calculate the value of ending stockholders equity.

Ending stockholder's equity = Ending assets- Ending liabilties=$34,000$15,000=$19,000 (5)

Calculate the value of beginning stockholders equity.

Beginning stockholder's equity = Beginning  assets- Beginning liabilties=$28,000$10,000=$18,000 (6)

(d)

Calculate the value of beginning assets:

Beginning assets={Beginning liabilities + Beginning stockholders' equity (8)}=$9,000 + $21,000=$30,000

Therefore, the value of beginning assets is $30,000.

Working notes:

Calculate the value of ending stockholder’s equity.

Ending stockholder's equity = Ending assets- Ending liabilties=$40,000$15,000=$25,000 (7)

Calculate the value of beginning stockholders equity.

Beginning  stockholders' equity}={Ending stockholders’ equity (7) Common stock Sales revenue +Expenses + Dividends}=($25,000$3,500$24,000+$17,000+$6,500)=$21,000 (8)
