Explanation:

The above transactions show their effects on the accounting equation, which states that assets = liabilities + equity.  Each transaction has some effects on the assets with equal effects on either the liabilities or equity.  This implies that the equation is always in balance.  It is the basis of the double-entry system of accounting.
