a) Record each transaction. The company uses the following accounts: Cash, Accounts Receivable, Supplies, Equipment, Accounts Payable, Deferred Revenue, Common Stock, Retained Earnings, Service Revenue, Salaries Expense, Advertising Expense, Rent Expense. b) Post each transaction to T-accounts and compute ending balance. The starting balances for the accounts are: Cash $26,100, Accounts Receivable $1,700, Supplies $500, Equipment $7,400, Accounts Payable $1,200, Common Stock $25,000, Retained Earnings $9,500. All others began with $0. c) After calculating ending balance of each account, prepare a trial balance.

I tried to work the problem out on my own but I got different totals for debits and credits on the trial balance so I know I did something wrong. Thank you in advance! Also, this is question number E20 for the accounting book with the ISBN 978-1259307959 in case you would like to add it to the Textbook Solutions section afterward.
