Sep 15 is not an entry because the house is personnal property.

Sep 20 the entry will be for half of the amount because half the money was used for personnal use.

The rest of your entries are simple journal entries.

The additional information provided is for adjusting and correcting entries.
No 1 is additional info for Sep 21, which should be an entry for a liability.
For No. 2 half the amount should be recorded as an expense and half should be recorded as a prepaid.

For No. 3 you need to calculate the amount of interest due(Interest Payable).

For No. 8 the original entry would have been to a Prepaid, so you need to move the original amount from the Prepaid account to an Expense account.

For No.s 9 and 10 you need to compute the amount of depreciation and record it.

For No. 11 part of the payment is to an expense account and the remainder will be to a prepaid account.

No. 12 is no entry required.
