    D. This should be: Debit Accounts Receivable and Credit Cash

    E. This should be: Debit Accounts Receivable and Credit Service Revenue

    J. This is not listed but I suspect it is correct because of item M.

    Items O through R look like adjusting entries, but are not listed. If this is the case then R should be Debit Supplies Expense and Credit Supplies.

    The other entries look correct. I would check your amounts for the adjusting entries to make sure they are correct.
