Owners' Equity is $30.e. Inventory is $30.

Answer 1

d. Owners' Equity is $30

Step-by-step explanation:

The owners equity is the amount of money that is own by the owner of the business or the business itself minus all of the debts that the business has, in this example, Lily just sold $100 in products, generating a profit of $30, because she bought that for $70, but she owns $70 of those $100 to the local bank, so eventhough she has $100, only $30 are actually owned by the business so Owner´s Equity equals $30.
