To solve the problem, let's analyze each transaction's impact on the balance sheet. We'll adjust Assets, Liabilities, and Owner's Equity accordingly.
(i) Surveen commenced business with cash ₹ 60,000 and stock ₹ 30,000.

Assets: Cash increases by ₹ 60,000 and Stock (Inventory) increases by ₹ 30,000.
Liabilities: No change.
Owner's Equity: Increases by the total investment of ₹ 90,000.

(ii) Purchased goods for cash ₹ 3,000 and on credit ₹ 15,000.

Assets: Stock increases by ₹ 18,000 (₹ 3,000 + ₹ 15,000), Cash decreases by ₹ 3,000.
Liabilities: Increases by ₹ 15,000 due to credit purchase.
Owner's Equity: No change.

(iii) Sold goods (costing ₹ 16,000) for ₹ 14,000 in cash.

Owner's Equity: Increases by a profit of ₹ 3,000 (Sales ₹ 15,000 - Cost ₹ 12,000).

(v) Goods donated for Leh Ladakh residents ₹ 7,000.

Assets: Stock decreases by ₹ 7,000.
