Jonathan Page- Page Business Solutions Incorporated (PBSI)
Jonathan Page was a very inquisitive child growing up. He was a great student in school
and always asked a lot of questions. While growing up he was a typical American guy
and enjoyed soccer and golf. But once Jonathan was given a computer for his 12th
birthday he fascinated with electronics. He like everyone else enjoyed playing on the
computer but his curiosity went a little further. He opened up his computer to see how it
actually worked. He opened up his laptop, computer and cellphone to see how the
electronics worked on the inside. His parents were frustrated at first, but when they saw
his interest was in how they worked and not just being mischievous, they encouraged him
in electronics.
Jonathan enrolled in a computer class in high school and became certified in Microsoft
Office. During his summers while he was in high school, He worked for a local computer
store in the small town they lived near. While he was just the receptionist and provided
customer service, when it was slow the owner would teach him about how a computer
worked. When it came time to apply for college, He knew what he wanted to major in
computer science at the University of Maryland. His long term desire was to own his own
computer consulting business and help clients set up their computer networks and all
their computer needs.
After earning undergraduate degree, Jonathan got a job a local bank as an IT
troubleshooter. He learn a lot but still wanted to own his own business. So after five years
at the local bank, He began his own computer consulting business. While doing computer
consulting for the past five years has been successful, many of the company’s clients
wanted to purchase the computer equipment from the business as well. So recently PBSI
has begun offering computer equipment as well as consulting services. So now the
company offers computer consulting and computer equipment to small businesses. (Hintremember you will record these two revenues differently because one is a service and one
is merchandise!)
After several years of running a successful small business PBSI has the following balance
sheet shown below. Jonathan did not get an MBA so he does not know how to do that
much accounting. He has found out that you recently graduated with your MBA. He
believes that you have enough experience to help him with his accounting for a few
months.
The Page Business Solutions Incorporated had the following balance sheet as of
December 31, 2022. The transactions for the first three months of 2023 are also
