Assets : Cash, Accounts receivable, Equipment

Liabilities : Salaries and wages payable, Accounts payable, Notes payable

Owners Equity : Owner's capital

Explanation:

Assets are valuable things owned by a business, to which firm's present or future monetary economic benefit can be entitled.

Cash, Account receivables (from debtors who owe money to us), Equipments are all beneficial ownerships and hence are Assets.

Liabilities are financial burden of the business, the amount business owes to others.

Salaries and wages payable, Accounts payable (from creditors to whom we owe money), Notes payable are all financial obligations to be fulfilled by business - so are liabilities of business.

Owners Equity are the assets of business which have been bought in by the Entrepreneur as 'Capital' in the firm.
