    Your Adjusted Trial Balance Debits and Credits should equal 230,835

    I have reworked your problem and put it in a Worksheet, Excel 97-2003 format to make it easier to understand. You should always use a Worksheet to solve these types of problems, as it will make things easier to solve and to look for problems.
