Answer 1

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

a. Record the effects of each accounting event under the appropriate general ledger account headings.

Using the accounting equation, we have:

Asset = Shareholder's equity + Liabilities

Cash = Retained earning + Common stock

Cash = $28,600 - $13,200 - $1,500 = $13,900 = Assets

Retained earning = $28,600 - $13,200 - $1,500 = $13,900

Common stock = 0

Retained earning + Common stock = $13,900 + 0 = Shareholder's equity

Liabilities = 0

Therefore, we have:

Majka Company
