    (1) Borrowings through note:

    This will increase cash by $58,100 that is asset,

    And this will increase liability in form of notes payable by $58,100

    + Assets ($58,100) = + Liability ($58,100) And No Effect On Equity

    (2) Paid Cash Dividend

    This will decrease cash by $8,960 that is asset,

    And this will decrease retained earnings by $8,960, which is part of equity.

    - Assets ($8,960) = Liabilities No effect, - Retained Earnings ($8,960) which is equity.

    (3) Cash received from customer

    Cash is received, therefore, it will increase by $14,200, which is an asset

    Payment is received from customer, which is decrease in accounts receivables, which is asset by $14,200.

    Thus, it will increase and decrease asset, therefore, no effect on accounting equation.

    (4) Purchased supplies on account

    This will increase supplies which are inventory, and therefore, will increase assets by $4,200.

    And since purchased on account this will increase liability in the form of accounts payable by $4,200.

    + Assets $4,200 = + Liabilities $4,200, No effect on equity.
