The owner of the company, Lily Oliver, is confused by the statements and has asked you for your help. She doesn’t understand how, if her Owner’s Capital account was $69,300 at December 31, 2020, owner’s equity is now only $20,900. The accountant tells you that $20,900 must be correct because the balance sheet is balanced. The accountant also tells you that he didn’t prepare a statement of owner’s equity because it is an optional statement. You are relieved to find out that, even though there are errors in the statements, the amounts used from the accounts in the general ledger are the correct amounts.
Prepare the correct multiple-step income statement. (Enter negative amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)
Prepare the correct statement of owner’s equity. (List items that increase owner's equity first.)
Prepare the correct classified balance sheet. You determine that $5,000 of the loan payable on the equipment must be paid during 2022. (List Current Assets in order of liquidity.)
