    The balance on the building account is $44,200

    Explanation:

    The total value of the right hand side must equal the left hand side of a balance sheet. This means the total asset must equal liability plus shareholder equity.

    Total Asset $

    Equipment 34,800

    Accounts receivable 4,550

    Land 34,700

    Buildings?

    Cash 14,750

    88,800

    Total Liability and Equity $

    Accounts payable 28,300

    Unearned service revenue 9,700

    Stockholder's equity 95,000

    Total Liability and Equity 133,000

    Buildings = Total Liability and Equity - Total Asset

    = $133,000 - $88,800 = $44,200

    The balance on the building account is $44,200
