Remember, that for every transactions, your TOTAL DEBITS MUST EQUAL YOUR TOTAL CREDITS.

1) Office supplies had a balance of $168 on Jan 1. Purchases debited to office supplies during the year amount to $830. A year end inventory reveals supplies of $570 oon hand.

Office Supplies Account:
Opening Balance 168
Purchases 830
Used Up ??????
Ending Balance 570

Therefore, must have used up $428

Dr. Supplies Expense 428
Cr. Supplies 428


2) Depreciation of office equipment is estimated to be $4,260 for the year

Dr. Depreciation 4,260
Cr. Accumulated Depreciation 4,260


3) property taxes for six months, estimated to be $1,750, have accrued but have not been recorded.

Dr. Property Taxes Expense 1,750
Cr. Property Taxes Payable 1,750


4) Unrecorded interest receivable on U.S. government bonds is $1,700

Dr. Interest Receivable 1,700
Cr. Interest Revenue 1,700


5) Unearned revenue has a balance of $1,800. Services for$600 received in advance have now been preformed

Dr. Unearned Revenue 600

6) Services totaling $400 have been performed, the customer has not yet been billed.

Also at this point, one side of the entry will affect an income statement account and the other side will affect a balance sheet account. Also do not make any adjustments to cash or equity.
