    adj entries
    it gets complicated the adj entries

    there is another one which is confusing to me :
    as of June 30, no bills had been received (utility). However from past experience shows that the company owes 2 utility companies about $ 200 and $ 225. Can these values be used to adjust the entry ?

    No bills have been received so cash cannot be affect.
    The entry would be
    Dr.Utility expense
    Cr.accounts payable (unless your company has a specific account to record accrued utility expense.)
