Step-by-Step-SolutionStep 1: Calculation of Total Equity

Total equity as on May 31,2018 and June 30, 2018 equals:

Equity​May31,2018=Assets−Liabilities=$122,000−$66,000=$56,000

role="math" localid="1651215169385" Equity​June30,2018=Assets−Liabilities=$287,000−$144,000=$143,000

02

Calculation of Net Income (Loss)

(a) Net income (loss) is calculated as follows:

NetIncome(Loss)=(Equity​June30,2018−Equity​May31,2018)−CommonStockIssued=($143,000−$56,000)−$10,000=$77,000

03

Calculation of Net Income (Loss)

(b) Net income (loss) is calculated as follows:

NetIncome(Loss)=(Equity​June30,2018−Equity​May31,2018)+Dividends=($143,000−$56,000)+$3,000=$90,000

04

Calculation of Net Income (Loss)

(c) Net income (loss) is calculated as follows:

NetIncome(Loss)=(Equity​June30,2018−Equity​May31,2018)−CommonStockIssued+Dividends=($143,000−$56,000)−$12,500+$30,000=$104,500
