Answer:

Total Asset = $543,000

Liability = $18,000

Total Equity = $525,000

Note: See the attached for the balance sheet.

Explanation:

Net income = Accounts Fees earned - Office expense - Miscellaneous expense - Wages expense

                    = $900,000 - $300,000 - $15,000 - $450,000  

Net income = $135,000

Ending retained earnings at 31 May 2018 = Retained earnings as of 1 June 2017 + Net Income – Dividend paid

                                                                          = $300,000 + $135,000 - $10,000

Ending retained earnings at 31 May 2018 = $425,000

Paradise Travel Service’s Balance sheet as of May 31, 2018

Using the information above, the Paradise Travel Service’s Balance sheet as of May 31, 2018 is prepared as attached.

In the attached file,  

Total Asset = $543,000

Liability = $18,000

Total Equity = $525,000

Using the Accounting equation bellows:

Asset = Equity – Liability

We have:

$543,000 = $525,000 - $18,000 = $543,000

Therefore, $543,000 = $543,000, which implies the accounting equation holds.
