Answer 1

balance: 14,400 debit

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this by doing the Cash T-accounts:

We write the debits under debit colum and credits under credit column

Then we calculate the total for each column and detemrinate the balance.

Cash

Debit Credit

beginning 10,000 3,000

4,000 500

3,000 100

1,000

totals 18,000 3,600

balance: 14,400
