To determine the ending balances for each account after all transactions, we need to analyze each transaction and update the account balances accordingly. Let's go through the transactions and update the accounts:

Initial Balances:
  • Cash: $29,600
  • Accounts Receivable: $18,300
  • Accounts Payable: $12,400
  • Common Stock: $22,900
  • Retained Earnings: $12,600
Transactions:
  1. Provided $68,900 of services on account.

    • Increase Accounts Receivable by $68,900.
    • Accounts Receivable: $18,300 + $68,900 = $87,200
  2. Incurred $3,200 of operating expenses on account.

    • Increase Accounts Payable by $3,200.
    • Accounts Payable: $12,400 + $3,200 = $15,600
  3. Collected $45,700 of accounts receivable.

    • Decrease Accounts Receivable by $45,700.
    • Increase Cash by $45,700.
    • Accounts Receivable: $87,200 - $45,700 = $41,500
    • Cash: $29,600 + $45,700 = $75,300
  4. Paid $36,000 cash for salaries expense.

    • Decrease Cash by $36,000.
    • Cash: $75,300 - $36,000 = $39,300
  5. Paid $14,040 cash as a partial payment on accounts payable.

    • Decrease Cash by $14,040.
    • Decrease Accounts Payable by $14,040.
    • Cash: $39,300 - $14,040 = $25,260
    • Accounts Payable: $15,600 - $14,040 = $1,560
  6. Paid an $8,400 cash dividend to the stockholders.

    • Decrease Cash by $8,400.
    • Cash: $25,260 - $8,400 = $16,860
Ending Balances:
  • Cash: $16,860
  • Accounts Receivable: $41,500
  • Accounts Payable: $1,560
  • Common Stock: $22,900 (unchanged)
  • Retained Earnings: $12,600 (unchanged, as dividends and expenses affect retained earnings but are not directly adjusted here)
Summary:

The ending balances for each account after all transactions are:

  • Cash: $16,860
  • Accounts Receivable: $41,500
  • Accounts Payable: $1,560
  • Common Stock: $22,900
  • Retained Earnings: $12,600

These balances reflect the impact of the transactions on Oak Consulting's accounts for Year 2.
