A check drawn by a depositor in payment of a voucher for $725 was recorded in the journal as $257. What entry is required in the depositor's accounts?

I said debit accounts payable: credit cash
I just want to make sure I am on the right track:)

Make a journal entry to revers the initial transaction and a new entry to record the correct facts as indicated...

As a note, all textbooks I've ever seen do one entry for the difference in dollar amount, which is what this poster is doing.
