Numbers 1 through 6 are adjusting entries. You need to compute the amounts then do the entry.
1. The amount is given to you. It is $300
2. The amount you will use is the difference between your account balance and your physical balance.
3. Take the amounts times 1/12 to get one month of depreciation for each item.
4. Take the amount of mortgage times 7% times 1/12 to get interest for one month.
5. The amount is given to you. It is $2,500
6. The amount is given to you. It is $750

Now you just need to figure out what accounts to debit and credit so you can do your adjusting entry.
