A Level Accounting (9706)•9706/11/M/J/25

Explanation
Owner's capital from accounting equation Steps:
- Calculate total assets: Non-current assets 39,000 = $141,000.
- Calculate total liabilities: Long-term loan 27,000 = $77,000.
- Apply accounting equation: Assets = Liabilities + Capital, so Capital = Total assets - Total liabilities = 77,000 = $64,000.
- Profit $32,000 is already reflected in assets, increasing capital for the period. Why B is correct:
- B $64,000 matches Capital = Assets - Liabilities per the fundamental accounting equation. Why the others are wrong:
- A $32,000: Only the profit, ignores net assets from other balances.
- C $97,000: Total assets minus payables only, excludes long-term loan.
- D $114,000: Total assets plus profit, double-counts the profit already in assets.
Final answer: B
