Answer:

a. Increase an asset and increase liability - BUYING INVENTORY ON ACCOUNT.

Buying inventory on account would have the effect of increasing inventory(asset) whilst increasing Payables (liability) as well.

b. Decrease an asset and decrease liability . - PAYING FOR INVENTORY PURCHASED ON ACCOUNT.

When the company pays the vendor it bought goods from on account, this would reduce cash (asset) whilst reducing payables (liabilities) as well.

c. Decrease an asset and increase an expense . - PAYING FOR ADVETISING.

Paying for advertising would decrease cash (asset) whilst increasing the Advertising expense.

d. Increase an asset and increase owner's equity . - SELLING SHARES.

Selling shares would increase the cash (assets) in the business as people will pay for the shares while at the same time increasing the equity in the business as well.

e. Increase an asset and decrease an asset . - RECEIVABLES PAYING FOR GOODS BOUGHT ON ACCOUNT.

When debtors (receivables) pay off the balance of the goods they purchased from the company on account this would increase the cash (asset) in the business while at the same time reducing the Accounts receivables (also asset) in the company.

f. Increase an asset and increase revenue. - SALE OF GOODS.

Selling goods would either increase the cash (asset) or the Accounts receivable (asset) in a company while also increasing the sales (revenue) of the company as well.
