Question:
Activity at the Clarkson Company for the first six months of 2023 was slow. At the end of June, the company borrowed $30,000. During the first six months of 2023, the sales revenue, including sales on credit, was $120,000, and only $50,000 of that amount was collected in cash. Amounts for rent, salaries, and miscellaneous operating expenses for the first six months, paid in cash, were $40,000, $28,000, and $12,000, respectively. Supplies costing $1,800 for a new service to be introduced in the second half of the year were ordered on June 15th and received on June 30th.
