Edgar knows he needs to use an income summary account to close out these temporary accounts. What amount should he put down?

Answer 1

Answer:  He should put down $20450.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount he received on cost of goods sold = $19000

Amount he received on supplies = $1500

Amount he received on interest expense = $1250

Amount he paid as utilities expense = $1300

According to question, Edgar knows he needs to use an income summary account to use an income summary account to close out these temporary accounts,

So, Amount he should put down is given by

$\ 19000+\ 1500+\ 1250-\ 1300\\\\=\ 20450$

Hence, He should put down $20450.
