The accountant has made the following journal entries to record the following transactions. There are numerous errors. You will need to find the journal entries that are incorrect, write the journal entry correctly and explain how the accountant's errors would affect the financial statements. Journal paper and a space to write the effects of the accountant's errors has been provided below. The number of provided space for journal entries does NOT indicate how many errors are present. Please download this Word document, do the assignment and submit it to me through the module titled "Project", I recommend looking at each dated transaction and compare it to the journal entry made to decide if each journal entry is correct or incorrect. For example, if the story stated that revenue was $57,500, but the accountant recorded the revenue as $75,500, you will need to write the correct journal entry, then explain that the error would overstate the revenue on the Income Statement and cause Net Income to be too high. The wrong Net income would be included on the Statement od Stockholders' Equity resulting in Retained Earnings being too high. Retained earnings is included on the Balance Sheet and therefore, overstate Equity and assets. Dec 12020 , started business by issuing 20,000 shares of common stock for $90,000.
