    Hello Sir,

    Thank you for this helpful lecture.

    I know that the Statement of Financial position did balance off nicely but I think I was attentive to the lecture and know how did the $ 500 withdrawals come up. But I wanted to know whether this error is going to cause problems later on.

    Thank you.

    Regards,
    Priya

    You were not listening carefully enough. The drawings were 100 and when I changed it to 500 I was simply explaining the sorts of mistakes that the bookkeeper could make.

    It will not change – assets (cash) fall, and also liabilities (payables) will fall.
    So no change in net assets and therefore no change in capital.

    At the end of the period we transfer the balance on the expense account to the Income statement t-account.

    CR expense account; DR Income Statement account
