When an expense is paid with cash, it results in a decrease in cash assets, leading to a reduction in owners' equity since expenses reduce net income. However, it does not directly affect liabilities unless the expense was previously recorded as an obligation. Therefore, the decrease in owners' equity does not equate to a decrease in liabilities; only the cash asset is reduced.
No, rent expense is not considered owners' equity. Rent expense is an operating cost that reduces net income on the income statement. Owners' equity represents the residual interest in the assets of a business after liabilities are deducted, reflecting the ownership stake of the owners or shareholders. Therefore, while rent expense affects the overall equity indirectly by impacting net income, it is not classified as owners' equity itself.
To determine the change in total assets, we can use the accounting equation: Assets = Liabilities + Owners' Equity. If total liabilities decrease by $46,000 and owners' equity increases by $60,000, the net change in assets would be a decrease of $46,000 plus an increase of $60,000, resulting in a total increase of $14,000 in assets.
No. Assets = Liabilities + Equity Always.

Liabilities are debts owed to an outside party (creditor) such as a bank loan, a truck note, etc. Expenses are the cost of operating the business and affect the net income. Expenses include things such as utilities, supplies, insurance, rent, etc. While liabilities are listed on the balance sheet, expenses are not. Also, Liabilities decrease Owners Equity (Stockholders Equity) while Expense decrease Net Income.

Remember the basic accounting equations Assets = Liabilities + Owners Equity (Stockholders Equity) Assets increase with a debit Liabilities as well as Equity increase with a credit Liabilities have a credit balance (meaning you must credit the account to "increase" it and debit the account to "decrease" it) this makes liabilities a credit.
No, Salaries are an expense. EXPENSE is a part of owners equity but you would not put salaries in the owners equity group you would put it with the expenses.

Yes, an expense decreases owner's equity because it reduces the net income of the business, which ultimately impacts retained earnings within equity. Expenses are recorded as debits in accounting, which increases the total expenses on the income statement. This decrease in net income leads to a corresponding decrease in owner's equity on the balance sheet.

No, Liabilities are not included in the total OE. Remember the account equation... Assets = Liabilities + Owners Equity If you have the total of your Assets and Liabilities, to find your OE then the equation would be written as this.. Assets - Liabilities = OE
