However, the company recently set up a petty cash fund to facilitate payments of small items. The following petty cash transactions were noted by the petty cashier as occurring during April 2020:

Apr.	1	Received a company cheque for $260 to establish the petty cash fund.
	15	Received a company cheque to replenish the fund for the following expenditures made since April 1 and to increase the fund to $340.
		a. Paid $69 for janitorial service.
		b. Purchased office supplies for $68.
		c. Purchased postage stamps for $22.
		d. Paid $83 to The County Crier for an advertisement in the newspaper.
		e. Discovered that $21 remained in the petty cash box.
	30	The petty cashier noted that $203 remained in the fund and decided that the April 15 increase in the fund was too large. Therefore, a company cheque was issued to replenish the fund for the following expenditures made since April 15 and to reduce the fund to $300.
		f. Purchased office supplies for $82.
		g. Reimbursed office manager for business auto, $40.
		h. Paid $15 courier charges to deliver merchandise to a customer.
