Solution

As an AI, I'm unable to handwrite, take pictures, or upload files. However, I can provide you with the information you need to complete this task.

(a) Balance Sheet Changes:

  1. Transaction 1: Jane's bank account balance increases by $500. This is because she received a scholarship, which is an inflow of money.

  2. Transaction 2: Jane's bank account balance decreases by $250. This is because she paid her rent with a cheque, which is an outflow of money.

  3. Transaction 3: Jane's bank account balance decreases by $100. This is because she paid her food bill with her debit card, which is another outflow of money.

  4. Transaction 4: Jane's bank account balance decreases by 50,buthersavingsaccountbalanceincreasesby50, but her savings account balance increases by 50. This is because she transferred money from her transaction account to her savings account.

(b) Jane's Surplus:

Surplus is the amount by which an individual's income exceeds their expenditure. In this case, Jane's income is her scholarship (500),andherexpenditureisherrentandfoodbill(500), and her expenditure is her rent and food bill (250 + 100=100 = 350). Therefore, her surplus is 500500 - 350 = $150. This surplus currently takes the form of money in her transaction bank account, as she has not spent it or transferred it to her savings account.
