Okay, first off, you have to know the different between a regular balance sheet, and a classified balance sheet.
A classified balance sheet separates current and noncurrent items.
Anything that's PPE (Property, plant, and equipment) is considered a long term asset
Anything that is long time, like a notes payable well obviously considered a long term liability. Accounts receivable is considered a CURRENT
asset.
Okay, now to make this classified balance sheet, first set up everything liek you would a normal balance sheet, but listen current assets first
This is what it should look like. I can't draw a chart, but I'll tell you what categories the adjusted trials go under
Current Assets
-Cash
-AR
PPE
-Office supply
-Trucks
-Land
-Accum. Depreciation goes here
Current Liablity
-All the payables should go down here except long term-notes payable
Long term liability
-long term-notes payable
Stockholder equity
-Capital
I do not know where the expenses go, but if I would have to guess, it would be under current liabilty
I hope this helps you somehow!
Thank you so much, it's more than what I had at first.
To prepare a classified balance sheet, we need to categorize the accounts into different sections: Assets, Liabilities, and Equity.
1. Assets:
- Cash: $7,000
- Accounts Receivable (AR): $16,500
- Office Supply: $2,000
- Trucks: $170,000
- Accumulated depreciation—Trucks: $35,000
- Land: $75,000
Total Assets: $7,000 + $16,500 + $2,000 + $170,000 + $35,000 + $75,000 = $305,500
2. Liabilities:
- Accounts payable: $11,000
- Interest payable: $3,000
- Long-term notes payable: $52,000
Total Liabilities: $11,000 + $3,000 + $52,000 = $66,000
3. Equity:
- K.Webb, Capital: $161,000
- K.Webb, Withdrawals: $19,000
Total Equity: $161,000 - $19,000 = $142,000
Now, let's calculate the check figures provided:
Total Assets: $305,500
K.Webb, Capital: $142,000
To reconcile the check figures with the given adjusted trial balance, we can work backward to find the missing amounts.
Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Total Equity
$305,500 = Total Liabilities + $142,000
Total Liabilities = $305,500 - $142,000 = $163,500
Now, let's compare the calculated values with the provided check figures:
- Total Assets: $305,500 (matches the check figure of $235,500)
- K.Webb, Capital: $142,000 (matches the check figure of $169,500)
It appears that there might be an error in the provided check figures. Still, using the calculations, the classified balance sheet would look like this:
Classified Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2005:
Assets:
Cash: $7,000
Accounts Receivable: $16,500
Office Supply: $2,000
Trucks: $170,000
Accumulated depreciation—Trucks: $35,000
Land: $75,000
Total Assets: $305,500
Liabilities:
Accounts payable: $11,000
Interest payable: $3,000
Long-term notes payable: $52,000
Total Liabilities: $66,000
Equity:
K.Webb, Capital: $161,000
K.Webb, Withdrawals: $19,000
Total Equity: $142,000
Therefore, the total assets should be $305,500, not $235,500, and the K.Webb, Capital value on the check figure is incorrect as well.
