Because of the formatting on this site I cannot tell what you have for a debit or credit.

Here is a way to remember what types of accounts have a normal debit or credit balance:

D - Debit Balance
E - Expenses
A - Assets
D - Dividends/Drawings

C - Credit Balance
U - Unearned Revenue
R - Revenues
L - Liabilities
S - Shareholder Equity/Owners Capital

As for your account types:
Cash - Current Asset
Accounts Receivable - Current Asset
Prepaid - Current Asset
Supplies - Current Asset
Sales Wages - Expense
Accumulated Depreciation - Contra Asset
Inventory - Current Asset
Interest Payable - Current Liability
Sales Returns & Allowances - Contra Revenue
Sales Discounts - Contra Revenue

The rest of your accounts are correct.

Thank you for using the site, and for looking for help with your school problems. As you should realize from the information you were to read when you signed up, we do not do your home work, or give you answers to home work.

To do so would be a violation of site rules, and a expert doing so, would be incorrect in this.

We can discuss your opinion, so if you wish to tell us what you think, what you find in your study of this, we can discuss it.
