 '''Note''': The statement of the exam problem uses numbers that ''do not match'' the numbering on Schedule F Part 6, which might be confusing. Watch out for that. Also, the labeling on Schedule F Part 6 is different from the corresponding items on the balance sheet. For those reasons, you should probably focus on learning the <u>names</u> of the above items rather than their line numbers.
