Lexington Company

The amount of total assets on Lexington's balance sheet at the end of Year 1 was:

$5,860

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cash from issue of common stock = $3,200

Cash from bank loan =                         2,300

Cash from revenue =                           3,200

Cash for expenses =                          (2,420)

Cash for dividends paid =                     (420)

Total assets =                                    $5,860

b) We can verify the total assets above by computing the liabilities and equity, which should be equal to the total assets according to the accounting equation.  The liabilities = $2,300 (bank loan).  The equity = common stock plus retained earnings ($3,200 + $3,200 - $2,420 - $420), which = $3,560.  The total of liabilities and equity = $5,860 ($2,300 + $3,560).  Therefore, assets = liabilities + equity ($5,860 = ($2,300 + $3,560).
