Not what you're looking for?

During the last week of the year, R&R received a shipment of inventory but has not paid for it. The invoice indicates that R&R owes $5,000 for the purchase. The owner of R&R, Randy Ray, has decided to omit this asset and the related liability from the year-end balance sheet, reasoning that it is okay because he is omitting both of them, which means there is no difference in owners' equity.
