    Hello sir,

    1)A new entity was formed with an initial issue of 1000 shares sold for $1 cash.Inventory costing $800 net of sales tax at 17.5% was purchased on credit.Half of this inventory was then sold for $1000 plus sales tax, the customer paying promptly in cash .

    The answer is assets $2575 less liabilities $975 equals capital $1600

    Could you please show how did we got the above answer ?

    2)

    1) Cash: 1,000 from the issue of shares, plus 1,175 from sales receipts of 1,000 plus sales tax.
    Inventory: 1/2 x 800 = 400.
    So total assets = 1,000 + 1,175 + 400 = $2,575

    Payables: 800 + 17.5% = 940.
    Sales tax owing to the state: tax on sales is 175; tax on purchases = 140. There tax owing = 175 – 140 = 35.
    So total liabilities = 940 + 35 = $975

    2) $20,000 is the amount that was owing at the end of 2004, and so this will have been paid in 2005. (The 25,000 owing at the end of 2005 will be paid in 2006).
