15-A1 (20-30 min.)
1. E = 150 - 120 = 30 D = 40 + 30 = 70 C = 15 because there were no additional investments by stockholders A = 85 - 15 - 40 = 30; or 85 - (15 + 40) = 30 B = 95 - 15 - 70 = 10; or 95 - (15 + 70) = 10
2. K = 20 + 170 = 190 J = 50 + 20 - 5 = 65 H = 10 + 30 = 40 F = 50 + 10 + 100 = 160 G = 275 - 65 - 40 = 170
3. P = 300 - 270 = 30 Q = 100 + 30 - 110 = 20 N = 85 - 35 = 50 L = 105 + 50 + 100 = 255 M = 95 + 85 + 110 = 290
This problem was designed for an equation-type solution, but some students may find a different approach more helpful in understanding the solution and its steps. Such an approach can
