Is this correct?

Please start your own thread instead of tagging onto other people's. I've moved all of your posts into their own threads.

Also please do not double post. It just confuses people and won't help.

I'm not following your work cause columns don't stay. Use dots... or something.

But the answers are incorrect. I just can't fully tell you why. I can tell you that the $4000 isn't an expense either way. Why are you putting the $3000 net sales revenue under cash and then also including the $6000 that was received? Same thing under accrued - you're duplicating things.
