At the end of the month, Smith Contractors, Inc. needs to record the following adjusting transactions to update their accounting records:

12. The company completed a physical count of supplies and determined that $1,000 of supplies are still on hand. Record the use of supplies

13. The company provided services of $1,000 to the customer that paid in advance (in #5)

14. Depreciation expense on equipment of $500 needs to be recorded

15.Record insurance expense for the month of October

16.Record accrual of interest expense on Note Payable for the month of October

Using the tabular analysis on the next page, summarize transactions 4-16 above to determine the ending balance in each account. Write the account names in the top row and the dollar amount increase or decrease of each transaction that effects that account in each row underneath. If Retained Earnings has been effected, be sure to note the specific revenue, expense, or dividend account. You will need that information to complete the Income Statement. Total up all of the transactions (#1-16) on the tabular analysis to determine the ending balance in each account and note it in the bottom row. You will use these totals to write the financial statements.

Assets = liabilities + Stockholder equity

summarize the information from the table above by preparing Smith Contractors, Inc.’s Income Statement and Statement of Retained Earnings for the month ended October 31, 2017 and a Classified Balance Sheet as of October 31, 2017. Be sure you include all labels, totals, and subtotals. You may not need all the lines given.
