e. Additional materials with value of $5,000 are sold, with a cost of $1,500, but the cash is not collected as of January 31st. It is expected that the $5,000 will be collected in full by February 15th.

I'm totally LOST...in red is what I instinctively think - but I know it is wrong b/c the Debits don't add up to the Credits. Can someone help me create the proper accrual basis journal entries for a-e or give me some hints?
