Explanation / Answer

In the given problem we are required to compute the Cash balance of the partnership firm as on 28 Feb. Since in the given problem there are various transactions which have taken place at different dates throughout the year, therefore we will take into consideration only those Cash transactions which have taken place till 28 Feb, So only two transactions are relevant for computation of cash Balance as on 28 Feb, the first transaction Is of Jan 14, & the other transaction of Feb 23. These transactions consist of Collection of Accounts receivable & Realisation of Land/building & equipment ,hence these transactions will generate cash & increase our cash balance.

Now let's compute the Cash balance.

A) Opening balance of Cash (as given) = $15000

B) Jan 14: Add: Collection from Accounts receivable (wn1) = $65600

C)Feb 23: Add: Realisation from Land,Building, equipment= $150000

D) 28 Feb : Cash Balance as on 28 Feb (A+B+C)= $230600

Wn1 : Collection from Accounts Receivable =(80% of 82000)

= $65600
