Explanation:

1) Data and Calculations:

a) Assets of $815,910

Liabilities of $257,830

Stockholders' equity = $558,080 ($815,910 - $257,830)

b) Assets of $944,820 ($815,910 + $128,910)

Liabilities of $335,340 ($257,830 + $77,510)

Stockholders' equity = $609,480 ($944,820 - $335,340)

c) Assets of $751,450 ($815,910 - $64,460)

Liabilities of $280,680 ($257,830 + $22,850)

Stockholders' equity = $470,770 ($751,450 - $280,680)

d) Assets of $923,610 ($815,910 + $107,700)

Liabilities of $217,030 ($257,830 -$40,800)

Stockholders' equity = $706,580 ($923,610 - $217,030)

e) Assets of $1,028,050

Liabilities of $167,260

Stockholders' equity = $558,080

Net Income = $302,710 (Assets - (Liabilities + Equity))

f) These different transactions and changes show that the accounting equation is always in balance.  This means that the assets of Inspirational Inc. will always be equal to the liabilities + equity.  The reason for this situation is that assets are funded by either liabilities or equity or a combination of these two financing sources.
