Explanation

Mirr began operations on 1/1/Y1 with the following balance sheet elements:

Assets=Liabilities+Owners’ equity
$860,000=$110,000+$750,000


During year 1, liabilities increased to $120,000, and owners’ equity increased to $765,000 [$750,000 beginning balance + $18,000 net income ($82,000 revenues − $64,000 expenses) − $3,000 dividends declared]. Therefore, 12/31/Y1 assets must be $885,000.

Assets=Liabilities+Owners’ equity
Assets=$120,000+$765,000
Assets=$885,000
