Accounting equaiton is
Assets = Liabilities + owner's equity
By using this equation the missing items are found in the excel sheet as follows, and the missing figure is highlighted in bold
| Balances on Jan.1.2019(opening balance) | ||||
| Company A | Company B | Company C | ||
| Assets | $140,000.00 | $210,000.00 | $160,000.00 | |
| Liabilities | $60,000.00 | $110,000.00 | $100,000.00 | |
| Equity | $80,000.00 | $100,000.00 | $60,000.00 |
| Balances on Dec.31.2019(closing balance) | |||
| Company A | Company B | Company C | |
| Assets | $190,000.00 | $250,000.00 | $190,000.00 |
| Liabilities | $110,000.00 | $160,000.00 | $60,000.00 |
| Equity | $80,000.00 | $90,000.00 | $130,000.00 |
The formula for changes in equity is
Closing balance = Opening balance + Additional investments - Drawings + Revenues - Expenses
So Additional Investments = Closing balance - opening balance + Drawings - Revenues + Expenses
opening balance of equity + Net income( - net loss) - Dividend = Closing balance of equity
Using above equation, the missing figures for additional information is calculated and highlighted in bold
| 2019 Additionl information | |||
| Company A | Company B | Company C | |
| Additional investment | $32,000.00 | $20,000.00 | $13,000.00 |
| Dividends | $12,000.00 | $40,000.00 | $20,000.00 |
| Total Revenues | $550,000.00 | $750,000.00 | $280,000.00 |
| Total Expenses | $570,000.00 | $800,000.00 | $450,000.00 |
| Opening balance of equity | $80,000.00 | $100,000.00 | $60,000.00 |
| Closing balance of equity | $80,000.00 | $90,000.00 | $130,000.00 |
| So as per the equation | |||
| Closing balance = Opening balance + Additional investments - Drawings + Revenues - Expenses | |||
| = 80000 + 20000-0+550000-570000 | |||
| = 650000 - 570000 | |||
| = 80000 for Company A | |||
| But Actual should be, Opening balance - net loss - dividend | |||
| = 80000 - 20000 -12000 | |||
| = 48000 | |||
| So additional investment = closing balance - actual balance | |||
| = 80000 - 48000 = 32000 | |||
| Closing balance = Opening balance + Additional investments - Drawings + Revenues - Expenses | |||
| = 100000 + 20000-0+750000-800000 | |||
| = 870000 - 800000 | |||
| = 70000 for Company B | |||
| But Actual should be, Opening balance - net loss - dividend | |||
| = 100000 - 50000 -(-40000) | |||
| = 140000 - 50000 = 90000 | |||
| So additional investment = Actual balance - closingl balance | |||
| = 90000 - 70000 = 20000 | |||
| So Revenues = Expenses -+ dividends - opening balance - c;losing balance. | |||
| = 450000 +20000 -60000 - 130000 | |||
| = 280000 for Company C |
