I am sure you know the balance sheet equation:
Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity + Revenue - Expenses
Analyze each transaction and determine which items are afftected
You also know the rules of double entry
Category Increases Decreases
Assets Debit Credit
Liabilities Credit Debit
Owner's Equity Credit Debit
Revenue Credit Debit
Expenses Debit Credit
I am sure you can solve the problem yourself.
Best wishes
