This depends on when the cash was received.

If the cash was received at the time of sale, then the owner's equity will increase. This is because revenue (and subsequently owner's equity) is increased at the time it is earned.

If, on the other hand, the cash is received as a result of a collection on Accounts Receivable from a previous sale, this will have no affect on owner's equity. This is because the revenue was recognized as soon as the receivable was recorded (i.e., the revenue was earned).

Does An expense paid with cash would result in an equal decrease in liabilities and owners equity?

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.
