In 2021, Julia started a new business, Jolly Doors, and hired her friend Mike. Julia builds beautiful wooden doors while Mike transports them to customers and helps them with installation. Most customers agree to get their doors delivered and installed (a $350 cost), but others decide to simply pick them up (a $200 cost). There were 224 doors picked up in 2021.

Mike is paid $200 per day worked. Julia's records show that Mike worked 175 days in 2021 and installed 410 doors. Julia estimates that wood for each door costs her $60, along with a $15 delivery fee. Other expenses are $1,500 per month for rent and utilities, and $10 per door for painting supplies and other minor materials.

To begin her business, Julia purchased $93,000 of used equipment and a $20,000 truck. She was told that the equipment would likely last 9 years, at which point it could be scrapped for $3,000 (a scrapyard would pay her for the metal). Julia plans to own the truck for 80,000 kilometers of use (about 6 years of consistent usage), then sell for $4,000. Julia is wondering how this equipment and truck should be reported on a balance sheet.

In 2022, Julia expects sales to increase 10%. She is pushing Mike to work for her full-time (250 days a year), but he is reluctant to quit his job. He is requesting a salary of $30,000 with commission of $50 per door installed. Julia wonders if it is better to hire a second employee on a part-time basis (same pay structure as Mike's in 2021).

Type out Julia's 2021 Income Statement. Correctly format your work, putting dollar signs at the appropriate places and indicate which numbers should be double-underlined using a "DU" label.

Also, give Julia some advice on how to account for her equipment and truck. Finally, analyze and comment on things Julia has done well, things she could improve on, and things she should keep an eye on in 2022.
