Part (a) Shane has $ 12,300 in total assets

Part (b) Shane owes $ 2,300 in liabilities

Explanation:

Shane's Catering began with cash of $10,000

At the beginning the Accounting Records of Shane should reflect the following Account Balances

Cash $10000 (debit)

Owners Equity $ 10000 (credit)

Shane then bought supplies for $2,300 on account.

When Shane buys supplies on account the transaction is recorded as follows

Inventory $2300 (debit)

Account Receivable $ 2300

Shane paid $7,500 for equipment

When Shane pays for equipment in cash the transaction is recorded as follows

Equipment $7500 (debit)

Cash $7500 (credit)

Balance of Assets is calculated as:

Cash 10000+Inventory 2300 - Cash 7500 + Equipment 7500 = $12300

Balance of Liabilities is calculated as:

Trade Receivable $ 2300
