The Ramons leased five acres of land at a cost of $1,000 per month and paid the first month's rent During the first month, advertising costs totaled $750, of which S100 was unpaid at March 31, and $500 was paid to members of the high-school golf team for retrieving golf balls. All revenues from customers were deposited in the company's bank account. On March 15, Anya and Nick withdrew a total of $1,000 in cash for personal living expenses. A S120 utility bill was received on March 31 but was not paid. On March 31, the balance in the company's bank account was $18,900.
