Answer:

ABC Daycare

Effect of Performing Plumbing Services on account on the Accounting Equation:

Assets (Accounts receivable) will increase by $565 and Equity (Retained Earnings) will equally increase by $565

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Analysis:

Accounts receivable $565 Service Revenue $565

The accounting equation that equals assets to liabilities and equity is always true at all times and with every correctly posted transaction. It implies that assets are financed through the contributions made by either the owners (equity) or the creditors (debts), or a combination of the two. This equation forms the basis for the double-entry system of financial accounting.
