Activity 5. 1. From the values in the table below, ascertain the

missing values using the accounting equation formula.

Assets ($) Owners’ equity Liability ($)

($)

1 40,000 12,000 28,000

2 75,000 50,000 25,000

3 80,000 58,700 21,300

4 100,000 65,000 35,000

5 60,000 39,000 21,000

total 355,000 223,000 130,300

40,000 - 12,000 = 28,000
75,000 - 25,000 = 50,000
58,700 + 21,300 = 80,000
100,000 - 35,000 = 65,000
60,000 - 39,000 = 21,000

2. Sum-up the total of each side.

Activity 6. Create your own example like the above and state
which is the opportunity cost.

The table below shows the list of items and prices Andre wants to
purchase with a total sum of $2,700

S/N ITEMS PRICE ($)

1 Football Boots 130

2 iPhone 13 2300

3 Apple Watch 150

4 Galaxy Buds 100

5 Jordans 200

With $2700 ( $130 + $2300 + $150 + $100) he can only buy the
first four items ( Football Boots, iPhone 13, Apple Watch and
Galaxy Buds ). The next item he will want to buy, if he had the
money, will be Jordans for $120. This is what we refer to as the
opportunity cost.

Activity 7. Draw a well labeled PPC diagram and spot and explain
you’re A and B points

This curve explains the fact that as more of good ‘B’ is produced,
less of product ‘A’, is likely to be produced
