Explanation:

Each of the above adjustments has effects on the balance sheet and the income statement (through the retained earnings balance).  The effects on the assets, liabilities, and equity represent the balance sheet effects.  The effects on the retained earnings represent the income statement effects.  Since the retained earnings are determined in the income statement and transferred to the balance sheet, we can actually use the accounting equation to depict all the effects as above.
