Cash received from a customer on account was debited for $370, and Accounts Receivable was credited for the same amount. The actual collection was for $730.
My thoughts were to Dr. Cash 360 and Cr Accounts Receivable 360
The purchase of a computer printer on account for $500 was recorded as a debit to Supplies for $500 and a credit to Accounts Payable for $500.
My thoughts were to Dr. Equipment 500 and Cr Supplies 500
Services were performed on account for a client for $890. Accounts Receivable was debited for $890 and Service Revenue was credited for $89
My thoughts were to Cr Service Revenue 801
All correct.
A payment of $65 for telephone charges was recorded as a debit to Office Expense for $65 and a debit to Cash for $65.
My thoughts were to Cr Cash 65
Well, you finally flubbed up. I guess I'll assume they actually want the telephone to go into office expense instead of the typical utilities expense. (Personally, I prefer office expense anyway.) You have the right idea to credit cash, but you have to take it one step further. Crediting cash is only going to un-do the accidental debit,
putting it back at a net zero change in the account. You still have to get the actual credit in there.
Hint: any time you debit when you should credit, or subtract when you have added, or anything that goes the opposite direction, will actually double the mistake.
When the Unearned Revenue Service Revenue account was reviewed, it was found that 225 of the balance was earned prior to June 30.
My thought was to Cr Unearned Service Revenue for 225 but I feel there is another account that I should be doing something to.
I think you're too busy trying to "correct" an entry when the entry was just downright left out. Note it says "225 of the balance" - which means that 225 is already in the Unearned account. That accounts represents what you have gotten paid in advance for, but have not done the work yet. They are saying that as it turns out, 225 of what is in there has actually now been earned - the work got done in June. So it's no longer an unearned and must be removed from that account. (Opposite of what you're doing.) And it's now earned, so those earnings have to be recognized. It's just a typical adjusting entry that was left out, rather than an actual correction of an error.
A debit posting to Wages Expense of $670 was omitted.
My thought was to Dr. Wages Expense 670
A payment on account for $206 was credited to cash for 206 and credited to accounts payable for $260.
My thought was to Dr. Accounts Payable 466
Both correct. Just a comment on this last one: this is the same concept as when the cash for 65 was on the wrong side. I think you caught this one because it was also for the wrong dollar amount. Dr. 260 to un-do the credit, AND Dr the 206 that should've been done. It's the same idea, except the other one is the same dollar amount.
A dividend of 575 was debited to Wages Expense for 575 and credited to cash for 575
My thought was to Cr Wages Expense 575, make a new account and Dr. Dividend 575, and make another account Cr. Drawing 575.
The credit to cash was correct to begin with. (I'm assuming that. In real life it would be Dividends Payable, but at beginning levels they just "pay" them right off. Or, if this is still a one-owner company, the owner will just pay it and not "declare" it first. Given the level of this work, that would be my guess of what they're expecting.)
There's two issues with crediting drawing. For one, it's a debit account and you're trying to subtract from it when it was never put in there to begin with. Second, a dividend is for a corporation and is
the same thing as drawing, but using a different name. A drawing is the owner taking out money from his/her own company. A dividend is money being paid to the owners, the stockholder(s). Same idea, but different names are used. A corporation doesn't have a drawing account - it's been
replaced with the dividend account.
Am I on the right track ? I am having some balancing issues so I wanted to make sure that I was in the right ballpark.
Most definitely on the right track with a couple of flub-ups. Better than many people would have done! I think you had two corrections where you put yourself back out of balance.
