Because the trial balance did not balance,you decided to examine the accounting records.You found that the following errors had been made:
1.A purchase of supplies on account for $245 was posted as a debit to Supplies and as a debit to Accounts Payable.
2.An investment of $500 cash by the sole stockholder was debited to Common Stock and credited to Cash.
3.In computing the balance of the Accounts Receivable account,a debit of $600 was omitted from the computation.
4.One debit of $300 to the Dividends account was posted as a credit.
5.Office equipment purchased for $800 was posted to the Shop Equipment account.
6.One entire entry was not posted to the general ledger.The transaction involved the receipt of $125 cash for repair services performed for cash.
