Beginning of the year

The Beginning Equity is:                                       Ending equity is:

= Assets - liabilities                                               = 115,000 - 46,575

= 57,000 - 24,436                                                = $68,425

= $32,564

a. Net income if no investments:

= Ending equity - beginning equity

= 68,425 - 32,564

= $35,861

b. No investment but dividends were $1,250 per month

= Ending equity - beginning equity + dividends

= 68,425 - 32,564 + (1,250 * 12)

= $50,861

c. Investment of $55,000:

= Ending equity - beginning equity - Equity investment

= 68,425 - 32,564 - 55,000

= -$19,139

d. Dividends of $1,250 per month and Investment of $35,000:

= Ending equity - beginning equity - Equity investment + Dividend

= 68,425 - 32,564 - 35,000 + (1,250 * 12 months)

= $15,861
