It is now the end of the first year of operations, and both owners want to know how well each business came out at the end of the year. Neither business kept complete accounting records, and neither owner made any withdrawals. The businesses throw together the data shown below at year-end:

Total Assets | $ 23,000 |
Owner contribution | 8,000 |
Total Revenues | 35,000 |
Total Expenses | 22,000 |
Greg's Tunes: | |
Total Liabilities | $ 10,000 |
Owner contribution | 6,000 |
Total Expenses | 44,000 |
