Creditors?
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option
A
Solution:
The accounting equation is Assets = Liabilities + Owners' Equity.
In this case:
Solving for Creditors:
Therefore, the amount for Creditors is Rs. 200,000.
In this case:
Assets = Land + Machinery + Cash = 1,500,000 + 80,000 + 20,000 = Rs. 1,600,000
Liabilities + Owners' Equity = Loan + Creditors + Owners' Equity
1,600,000 = 500,000 + Creditors + 900,000
Solving for Creditors:
1,600,000 - 500,000 - 900,000 = Creditors
Creditors = 200,000
Therefore, the amount for Creditors is Rs. 200,000.
