During June 1994, Chris Scott Crop Dusting engaged in several key financial activities. The business commenced with an initial investment of $60,000 in cash by the owner. Subsequent transactions included the purchase of a $225,000 aircraft, financed through a cash down payment and a note payable. Operational activities involved paying monthly rent, billing customers for crop-dusting services rendered in two halves of the month, collecting cash from customers for prior services, and incurring and paying employee salaries. Additionally, the business incurred expenses for aircraft maintenance and fuel, the latter on credit. Finally, the owner withdrew $2,000 in cash for personal use, representing a distribution of equity. These transactions collectively illustrate the initial operational and financial flows of the newly established crop-dusting business.
