Explanation / Answer

1)

Retained Earning = Assets - Liabilities

Assets as at 1 July 2014 = Cash + Accounts Receivable + Land + Supplies

                                      = 45000+93000+75000+7000

= 220,000

Liabilities as at 1 July 2014 = Capital Stock + accounts Payable

                                            = 60,000 + 40,000

                                            = 100, 000

Therefore retained earnings as at 1 july 2014 = 220,000 - 100,000

                                                                        = $ 120,000

2)

Total Assets= 220,000.00

Account Payble= 40000.00

Owner's Equity= Total Assets- Total Liabilities

Owner Equity= 220000-40000= 180000 USD
