Answer

Total assets have been increased by $19,000, liabilities by $4,000, Equity by $10,000 and Revenue by $5,000.

Step-by-step solution

Accounting equation

The accounting equation is the horizontal form of expressing the double-entry system. Under this equation, all the assets are shown on the left side of the equation, and the liabilities and assets are shown on the right side of the equation. The sum of all assets equals the sum of all liabilities and capital.

Accounting equation for described transactions in (b)

Assets = Liabilities + Equity
Cash $10,000 + $5,000	Machine + $4,000		= =	Accounts payable + $4,000		+	Capital $10,000	Revenue + $5,000
$15,000	$4,000		=	$4,000			$10,000	$5,000
