Each of the listed accounts has a normal balance per the general ledger. An examination of the ledger and journal reveals the following errors:
One of the nice things about being designated as an Expert is that I can edit your post.
I didn't edit your post, but what I did do was click on edit to see your formatting for your trial balance.
From looking at it, I want to highlight the following that I see that you have done:
1) You gave CASH a CREDIT balance of 2,180
2) You gave UNEARNED REVENUE a DEBIT balance of 1,200
Since the above said that all accounts have a normal balance, that is incorrect since Cash is normally a debit balance and unearned revenue is normally a credit balance.
Therefore, after making those changes, the total debits and credits are: 14,660 and 16,346

i know i have to add 960-690= 270 in cash and subract 270 from AR.
Correct, you need to:
Dr. Cash 270
Cr. AR 270

Correct, you need to:
Dr. AR 720

Here i would add 206+260= 466 to AP, right?
Wrong.
What was done:
Cr. AP 260
Cr. Cash 206
What should have been done:
Dr. AP 206
Cr. Cash 206
What needs to be done to fix it:
Dr. AP 206
Dr. AP 260
Or you can say Dr. AP 466
You would SUBTRACT 466 from AP

i do not know what to do here? i think add 600 to salaries expense and subtract 600 in cash?
What was done:
Dr. Salaries Expense 600
Cr. Cash 600
What should have been done:
Dr. Dividends 600
Cr. Cash 600
What needs to be done to fix this:
Dr. Dividends 600
Cr. Salaries Expense 600
What to do now?
Now, takes all the above corrections and apply them to the trial balance:
New trial balance:
Debits:
Cash 2,180 + 270 = 2,450
AR 3,370 – 270 + 720 = 3,820
Supplies 800 - 340 = 460
Equipment 3,000 + 340 = 3,340
Dividends 800 + 600 = 1,400
Salaries Expense 3,600 + 500 - 600 = 3,500
Office Expense 910
Total Debits = 15,880
Credits:
AP 2,666 - 466 = 2,200
Unearned Revenue 1,200
Common Stock 9,000
Service Revenue 3,480
Total Credits 15,880
