1. Amount of total liabilities and equity
Total liabilities and equity equal total assets.
Total Assets = RM 2.5 Million.
Thus, amount of total liabilities and equity (total liabilities) = RM 2.5 Million or RM 2,500,000
2. Current assets
Total Assets = RM 2.5 Million
Net Plant and equipment = RM 2 Million
Thus, balance of total assets will be current assets = RM 2.5 Million - RM 2 Million = RM 0.5 Million
Current assets = RM 0.5 Million or RM 500,000
3. Current Liabilities
Current Liabilities = Total Liabilities - long term debt - common equity
= 2.5-0.75-1.5 = RM 0.25 Million or RM 250,000
4. Accounts payables and accruals
Accounts payable and accruals are classified as current liabilities.
Total Current liabilities as per (3) above = RM 250,000
Notes payable also gets classified as current liabilities and it equals RM 150, 000.
Thus, Accounts payable and accruals = Total current liabilities - Notes payable
RM 250,000 - RM 150,000 = RM 100,000
Accounts payables and accruals = RM 100,000
Thus, the statement of financial position will be as below:
Assets | RM Million |
Net Plan and Equipment | 2,000,000 |
Current Assets | 500,000 |
Total Assets | 2,500,000 |
Liabilities | RM Million |
Accounts payable and accruals | 100,000 |
Notes Payable | 150,000 |
Long term debt | 750,000 |
Common equity | 1,500,000 |
Total Liabilities | 2,500,000 |
