    You have accounts listed more than once.

    It appears they are journal entries. The first one does not balance

    It should be:
    Debit Cash for 600
    Debit Truck for 1,100
    Credit Capital for 1,700
    (for owner investing cash and a truck into the business)

    Once you journalize your entries you need to post them to your acocunts, then get your account balances, then you do your trial balance.
