On January 2, 2004, Tameka Essendoh opened the Essendoh Tailor and Alterations Service. She invested $9,000 in the venture and set up a bank account in the company's name. Also on that day, she rented a small area in a laundry and cleaning shop at a cost of $300 per month; all utilities were provided by the building owner. On January 3, 2004, she purchased tailoring equipment (sewing machines, pressing machines, and other equipment) which had an expected life of 5 years and cost $5,600. She paid $2,600 in cash; the balance was on account. She agreed to pay the balance in four quarterly payments of $750 each, with payments due on April 4, July 5, and October 5, 2004; the final payment was due on January 5, 2005. On January 4, 2004, Tameka purchased furniture which had an expected life of 10 years and cost $3,000. She paid $1,000 in cash and agreed to pay the balance on March 3, 2005. Tameka decided to pay herself a monthly salary of $2,000, with the payment for each month to be made on the first business day of the following month. The first payment, for January, was made on February 2.
During 2004, Tameka received cash of $28,000 for services rendered. Her cash outlays during the year for equipment and furniture were as follows:
Tailoring equipment (down payment of $2,600, plus
three quarterly payments totaling $2,250) $4,850
Furniture 1,000
$5,850
On December 31, 2004, Tameka decided to get married and join her husband in another city. Samatha Dewbury, who had previous tailoring experience, learned that Tameka was leaving the city and discussed with Tameka the possibility of purchasing her shop. Tameka prepared and gave to Samatha the following income statement for the year and balance sheet as of December 31.
