Question

    A firm raises 1000000 by issuing common equity, which of the following financial statements will reflect the transactions?

    A Income statement and statement of owners’ equity Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Balance sheet, cash flow statement, statement of owners’ equity Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only balance sheet Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The 100000-capital raised will appear in cash flow statements as a cash flow from financing activity. It will also appear as a contributed capital in owners’ equity. Both assets (cash) and equity (liabilities side of the balance sheet) increase in the balance sheet. The income statement is unaffected by these transactions.
