1 and 2 – good job

3:
Dr. Cash 10
Cr. AR 10
If it has already been billed, the revenue has already been recorded.

4 – 5 – good job

6:
Confused a bit here.
I see $3 of interest payable on your balance sheet, are you just now paying that?

If so,
Dr. Interest Payable 3
Cr. Cash 3

7:
Dr. Cash 9
Dr. AR 9
Cr. Service Revenue 18

You made $18 in sales. You got half in cash $9, and the other half in AR (still owed)

8 – 9 – good

14 – can’t do that just yet. First need to do adjusting entries to calculate net income.

10 – correct, except you should probably stick to one common revenue name.

Earlier you called it Service Revenue, here you call it Fees Earned

11 – 13 – good

Before we do 14, we must calculate Net Income:

Revenues
(7) Cr. Service Revenue 18
(10) Fees Earned 3
Total Revenue = 21

Expenses
(1) Wage Expense 5
(11) Interest Expense 1
(12) Depreciation Expense 4
(13) Supplies Expense 5
Total Expenses = 15

Net Income = 6

Now we can do 14.

14.Declared & paid cash on dividend in amount of 50% of net income

Dr. Dividends 3
Cr. Cash 3

Are you expected to do Closing entries as well?
Dr. Retained Earnings 3
Cr. Dividends 3

Plus closing your revenue and expense accounts.
