Question:

Diane Maynard made the following request of a friend:
My bookkeeper has quit, and I need to see the balance sheets of my company. He has left behind a book with the numbers already entered in it. Would you be willing to prepare balance sheets for me? Also, any comments you care to make about the numbers would be appreciated. The Cash account is healthy, which is a good sign, and he has told me that the net income in June was $19,635.
1. Prepare balance sheets as of June 1 and as of June 30, in proper format.
2. Make comments about how the financial condition as of the end of June compared with that at the beginning of June.
3. Why do retained earnings not increase by the amount of June net income?
4. As of June 30, do you feel that Maynard Company is worth the amount in Shareholder's Equity, $619,446? Explain.
