Employees:
We worked today but we haven’t been paid for today!!! The 5 of us in total EARNED $500 today!!
So as of Dec 31, the 5 employees worked 2 days (earned $1,000) but they have not been paid, therefore, you haven’t recorded that expense yet. So we must do an adjusting entry to record the expense and the liability (since we have not paid them yet-so we’re LIABLE to pay them later).
b. Dec. 31 Unearned Consulting Revenue......................................... 3,000Consulting Revenue Earned..................................... 3,000

Part 1Company A
(a) Equity on December 31, 2008:
Assets...................................................................... $33,000 Liabilities................................................................. (27,060)Equity ...................................................................... $ 5,940
(b) Equity on December 31, 2009:
Equity, December 31, 2008..................................... $ 5,940 Plus owner investments......................................... 6,000 Plus net income...................................................... 7,760 Less cash dividends...............................................

(c) Liabilities on December 31, 2009:
Assets...................................................................... $36,000 Equity ...................................................................... (16,200)Liabilities................................................................. $19,800
The way I would work the problem: First, fill in all the info the problem gives you for Company A (in green). Next, fill in the blanks (in blue) Assets of 33,000 – liabilities of 27,060 = 5,940 of equity (beginning balance). Assets increased from 33,000 to 36,000, so there must have been an increase of 3,000 during 2009. The beginning balance of equity was 5,940 and we know that during 2009 there was an increase of 10,260 (+7,760+6,000-3,500). So the ending balance of equity is 16,200. Assets of 36,000 – equity of 16,200 = 19,800 of liabilities (ending balance). Beg. Bal. of liabilities was 27,060 and the end. Bal. was 19,800, so the activity during 2009 must have been a decrease of 7,260. [This particular problem doesn’t ask you for the liabilities during 2009, but this is how I would find any missing info.

First, calculate the beginning balance of equity:Dec. 31, 2008
Assets...................................................................... $21,120 Liabilities................................................................. (11,404)Equity ...................................................................... $ 9,716
Next, find the ending balance of equity by completing this table:

(1,289)Less cash dividends............................................... (5,875)Equity, December 31, 2009..................................... $12,302
Finally, find the ending amount of assets by adding the ending balance of equity to the ending balance of liabilities:
Dec. 31, 2009

Assets............................................... $58,740 $65,520 Liabilities.......................................... (40,530) (31,449)Equity ............................................... $18,210 $34,071
Then, find the amount of owner investments during 2009:

Assets...................................................................... $ 99,360 Liabilities................................................................ (78,494)Equity ...................................................................... $ 20,866
Next, find the beginning balance of equity as follows:

Plus owner investments......................................... 6,500 Plus net income...................................................... 7,348 Less cash dividends............................................... (11,000)Equity, December 31, 2009.................................... $20,866
Thus, the beginning balance of equity is: $18,018
Finally, find the beginning amount of liabilities by subtracting the beginning balance of equity from the beginning balance of assets:

More explanation on c:The company received 1,500 on Nov 1st for 3 months of rent that they would provide. The company recognized the revenue on that date.
