Explanation:

Determine Account Balances at the end of the month as follows :

Cash : $175,000 - $9,000 + $4,000 - $6,800 -  $7,800 + $3,500 - $6,400 - $900 = $151,600

Office equipment : $27,000 + $5,100 = $31,100

Common Stock : $202,000

Prepaid Rent:  $9,000

Office supplies : $1,700 + $1,000 = $2,700

Accounts Payable : $6,800 - $6,800 + $1,000 = $1,000

Service Revenue : $4,000 + $10,400 + $4,980 =  $19,380

Accounts Receivable: $10,400 - $3,500 + $4,980 = $11,880

Prepaid Insurance: $7,800

Dividends: $6,400

Utilities:  $900
