Omar and Janet own a small jewelry-supply business called Rings and Things. From January through April, the company generated a fair amount of business. However, Janet and Omar’s owner equity is lower than they had expected, and they seem to be losing money every month, even though sales are steady.

Materials (beads and wires) $40
Finished jewelry $100
Office supplies $50
Furniture $100
Total $2,322
Liabilities
Balance on loans $925
Payroll $1,000
