Supplies = $1,150

Equipment = $12,800

Accounts payable = $9,850

As per the accounting equation:

Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity

Cash + Accounts receivable + Supplies + Equipment = Accounts payable + Owner's equity

$25,500 + $7,800 + $1,150 + $12,600 = Accounts payable + $9,850

$47,050 = Accounts payable + $9,850

Accounts payable = $47,050 - $9,850

Accounts payable = $37,200
