Answer 1

Okay, first off, you have to know the different between a regular balance sheet, and a classified balance sheet.

A classified balance sheet separates current and noncurrent items.

Anything that's PPE (Property, plant, and equipment) is considered a long term asset

Anything that is long time, like a notes payable well obviously considered a long term liability. Accounts receivable is considered a CURRENT
asset.

Okay, now to make this classified balance sheet, first set up everything liek you would a normal balance sheet, but listen current assets first

This is what it should look like. I can't draw a chart, but I'll tell you what categories the adjusted trials go under

Current Assets
-Cash
-AR

PPE
-Office supply
-Trucks
-Land
-Accum. Depreciation goes here

Current Liablity
-All the payables should go down here except long term-notes payable

Long term liability
-long term-notes payable

Stockholder equity
-Capital

I do not know where the expenses go, but if I would have to guess, it would be under current liabilty

I hope this helps you somehow!
