Lakeland Consulting started the year with total assets of $30,000 and total owner's equity of $20,000. During the year a) assets increased by $20,000, b) the business recorded $45,000 in revenues, c) the business recorded $30,000 in expenses, and d) the owner withdrew $5,000 for personal use. Liabilities at the end of the year were:

Liabilities at the end of the year were: $15,000.

Explanation:

Using the Accounting Equation : Assets = Equity + Liability

Then we know that,

Liability = Assets - Equity

Opening Balance of Liabilities ( $30,000 - $20,000)               = $10,000

Adjustment during the year ($20,000 - ($45,000 - $30,000)) = $5,000

Ending Balance of Liability                                                          = $15,000

b. a single paragraph.

a paragraph is a series of sentences that are organized and make sense, and are all related to a single topic . almost every piece of writing you do that is longer than a few sentences should be organized into paragraphs. this is because paragraphs show a reader where the subdivisions of an essay begin and end, and thus the reader see the organization of the essay into subjects in order to be able to understand its main points.
