I need the adjusting entries for these

Fees Accured but unbilled are 6000
The supplies account balance on 12/31 is 6200, the supplies on hand are 1150
Wages accured but not paid are 4600
Depreciation of office equipment is 3200
Rent expired during year, 9300

I've Done most of them but kind of confused on the supply and depreciation ones

For supplies you have to calculate the supplies that were used in the period. From the info provided you need to subtract the onhand amount from the account balance to get the supplies used. Basically you are doing an adjusting entry to get your account balance to agree with your physical count. Your adjusting entry will be: Debit Supplies Expense (Income Statement Account) for the difference between your account balance and your onhand balance and Credit Supplies (Balance Sheet Account) for the amount.

Depreciation is given to you so the entry will be: Debit Depreciation Expense for the amount and Credit Accumulated Depreciation for the amount.
