These accounts are not necessarily in good order and have normal debit or credit balances. (Note: Because these are not all of UPS's accounts, these will not balance in a trial balance.)

Collected $38,085 from customers on account.
Repaid $380 on a long-term note (ignore interest).
Issued 200 million additional shares of $0.01 par value stock for $39 (thats $39 million).

Used $7,600 in spare parts, supplies, and fuel for the aircraft and equipment during the year.
