5. Customers owe the shop $3,200 for services already performed.

6. The workers were hired this year and are owed $550 at the end of the year for work in December. Barton Company uses the indirect method of preparing the Statement of Cash Flows and reports the following comparative balance sheet information. As customary, the most recent data is in the first column.
