Share issue proceeds 1,100
Payments to finance lease creditors 2,200Does that agree with the solution?

there’s no solution for these questions, I’m afraid. I can see now how you arrived at 1,100, but why 2,200? we paid only 1,200 (1,000+200) on lease liabilities, I believe.

Put both brought forward liabilities into the credit side of a single T account (4,000 and 2,000)
Put both carry forward liabilities into the debit side of the same T account (3,000 and 1,800)
Put into the credit side of that same T account the 1,000 new finance lease liability
That gives us credits of 7,000 and debits of 4,800 – a missing figure on e debit side of 2,200
That entry MUST have been Dr Finance Lease Liabilities 2,200 Cr Cash 2,200
Ok?

That’s a good idea. Last time I taught in your area (Uzbekistan) I remember telling the students that really the only time I found T accounts of immense value was in Cash Flow questions.
It is possible to do without – of course it is – but if there’s any tiny element of doubt, then open a T account
