    On the Trial balance everything seems to match with the check figures I was given except for: Cash, A/R, A/P. MI, and Sales.

    Check figures: Cash should = D47,401
    A/R should = D16,000
    A/P should = C8,900
    MI should = D24,710
    sales should = C51,000.
    Note; I've already turned in my results with really no difinitive answer to what exactly is right and what is wrong in my journal, just an over all grade, so I figured I would try to figure it out on my own, but alas to no success! Please, put this journal to rest so I can understand better.
