During the second week Blake pays $50, Emerson pays $75, and Jamie pays $30. During the third week Amari pays $35, Blake pays $60, Emerson pays $20, and Kai pays $30. During the fourth week Amari pays $30 and Jamie pays $20. The five friends then decide to split all of the dinners equally and calculate who owes who how much money. a. Define a system for the five friends' dinner expenses and construct the universal accounting equation for it. Create a basic diagram or sketch for your system. b. Who ends up owing money and how much does each person owe? c. Write out a sequence of four or fewer transactions for the friends to 'settle up' (make it so everyone paid the same amount).
