Slappey Communications is a technology firm in Birmingham, Alabama, specializing in telecommunications, computer, and network security. Its owner, Bill Slappey, invested nearly $770,000 in property, plant, and equipment for the business in 2014 (See Small Firms Poised to Spend More on Plants, Equipment, A. Loten and V. Monga, Wall Street Journal, September 3, 2014.) Slappey spent about $100,000 to build a 1,000-square-foot cloud storage room, or a warehouse for network servers. Slappey also spent about $670,000 on computers, servers, and other hardware. Funding for the 2014 investment in the warehouse and computer hardware came from two sources. According to the September 3, 2014, Wall Street Journal article, Slappey borrowed about $385,000 and .used its earnings to fund the rest. Questions 1. Assume that Slappey borrowed the funds for the cloud storage room by signing a long-term note. What impact, if any, would this investment have on Slappeys assets, liabilities, and equity? 2. Will the $100,000 investment in the cloud storage room impact Slappeys 2014 income statement (again assume that Slappey borrowed the funds)? If so, what account(s) would be impacted? 3. When the Wall Street Journal article states that Slappey used its earnings to fund the rest, what does this statement mean? Where did the funding come from? 4. Now assume that Slappey purchased computer hardware for $300,000 by using its earnings to fund the rest. What impact will that transaction have on Slappeys balance sheet? On its income statement for 2014? What accounts would be affected
