You are not to a trial balance. You have a bunch of transactions to do first. There is also no way by looking at this to know if you're supposed to be doing a tabular (extended equation) version, like is typically in a first chapter, or debits & credits which are typically taught in a second chapter.

Since each entry is completely different, there is no way to "give hints" on something like this. Have you tried to do any of it? If so, post your attempts. If not, you're going to have to home in on something and ask specific questions. We cannot lecture an entire chapter.
