Hi for the first entry my friend told me to

Dr Accounts receivable $800
Cr Fees receivable $200
Cr Services revenue $600

But I am not sure if she is right though could you please explain to me?

Thank you

Accrued Revenues are revenues that have been earned but not received.

So your friend's entry looks correct.
