Mary and Jack Gray, local golf stars, opened the Chip-Shot Driving Range on March 1, 2012, by investing $25,000 of their cash savings in the business. A caddy shack was constructed for cash at a cost of $8,000, and $800 was spent on golf balls and golf clubs. The Grays leased fi ve acres of land at a cost of $1,000 per month and paid the fi rst month's rent. During the fi rst month, advertising costs totaled $750, of which $150 was unpaid at March 31, and $400 was paid to members of the high-school golf team for retrieving golf balls. All revenues from customers were deposited in the company's bank account.
On March 15, Mary and Jack withdrew a total of $1,000 in cash for personal living expenses. A $100 utility bill was received on March 31 but was not paid. On March 31, the balance in the company's bank account was $18,900.
Mary and Jack thought they had a pretty good fi rst month of operations. But, their estimates of profitability ranged from a loss of $6,100 to net income of $2,450.
