At the end of the day, the cash register tape lists $827.27 as total income from services. Cash on hand consists of $15.27 in coins, $694.00 in currency, $80 in traveler's checks, and $236.00 in customers' checks. The amount or the change fund is $200. How do I record this in the general journal form? Please help.

Dr. Cash 827.27
Cr. Sales 827.27

Unless your teacher wants you to break up Cash in coins, currency, traveler's checks, etc.

But I don't see why he/she would want that.
