    Standard Accounting Equation is:

    Assets = Liabilities + Stockholder's Equity

    Stockholder's Equity has two components = Common Stock and retained earnings

    1. Issued shares

    This will increase common stock as for the value it is issued = $107,000

    It will also increase cash as cash is received in exchange, for the same amount.

    Net effect: Increase assets and increase stockholder's equity by $107,000

    2. Issued bonds

    This will increase bonds payable by the same amount, which is liability.

    This will also increase cash as cash will be provided by issue of bonds.
