accounting | the issuing of stock increases assets |
nagri | To be more precise, it should increase current assets and not just assets and in this case cash is increased |
SaeedAlam | I'm guessing it should increase debit cash on one side and credit contibuted capital on the other side? |
george1803 | Issuing stock will increase Assets on one side Stockholders Equity on the other side, Therefore, the current assets go up while the current liabilities stay the same so answer C |

I passed! I did not get a chance to tell you before the exam - but your site was excellent. I will definitely take it next year for Level II.
