Introduction Business-Way, Inc., is a small telecommunications firm specializing in tele-communications between credit unions. Located in downtown Penyrn, California, Bus-Way has grown from a modest 5-person operation to an employer who has a large staff with varying skills in telecommunications, accounting, and financing. In addition to providing telecommunication services, it also provides financing for installation of its telecommunication services. In the coming year, the company will issue additional common stock, issue preferred stock, and repurchase some its common stock. The normal, day-to-day transactions of sales and operating expenses are ignored for this problem. In a real world situation it is unlikely that all of the transactions or all of the general ledger accounts would be found in, or used by, a corporate business.
