What am I getting wrong??

Without seeing all your workings I cannot say. I have no intention of doing your assignment
So it is unlikely than I can present you with a definative answer

You need to review the classifications you are making as apparently you are misidentifying some of the transactions you only have to misidentify a few transactions to have totals wrong in more than one journal i.e. when you pay cash it is a cash payment, when you receive cash it is a cash receipt, when you purchase something for credit it is a purchase, etc don't be fooled by the terminology. One of the techniques for reconciliation is to work out how far your calculation is incorrect and see if there is a transaction that matches it

This is not doing my home seeing that is already done and marked. These here I had wrong and I can't figure out why
