Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

The indication of the account, amount and the direction of the effect are as follows

As we know that

Accounting equation is

Total assets = Total liabilities + stockholder equity

Based on this, the indication and the direction aare as follows

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity

A) $13,000 = 0 + $13,000

It increased both the assets and the stockholder equity i.e capital

B) $10,000 = $10,000 + 0

It increased both the assets and the liabilities

C) $1,100 = $1,100 + 0

It increased both the assets and the liabilities

D) +$18,000 -$1,600 = $16,400 + 0

It increased the land by $18,000 and decreased the cash by $1,600 and at the same time it increased the liabilities by $16,400

E) +$6,000 -$1,600 = $4,400 + 0

It increased the equipment by $6,000 and decreased the cash by $1,600 and at the same time it also increased the liabilities by $4,400

Total $44,900 = $31,900 + $13,000
