\section*{Required}

a. Restate the balance sheet of Grace Hospital as of December 31, 20X1, to reflect the fact that hospitals do not have an investment in plant funds. (Hint: The \(\$ 53,800\) cash and \(\$ 71.200\) investments belong to temporarily restricted funds for plant replacement, and the other assets reported in the plant fund are properly included as part of unrestricted net assets.)

b. Prepare journal entries to record the transactions for \(20 \times 2\) in the general fund, the plant replacement and expansion fund, and the endowment fund. Assume that the plant fund balances have been transferred to the appropriate funds as indicated in part \(a\) of this problem. Omit explanations.
