The trial balance of a sole trader failed to agree and the balance was entered into a suspense account. An examination

of the books and records of the sole trader revealed the following:

During the year, /2,250 interest received on favourable bank balances were correctly entered in the cash

book but debited to the interest expense account.

A payment of /7,100 for rent had been correctly recorded in the cash book but debited to the rent account

as /17,000.

When these entries are corrected the trial balance will balance.

You are required to:

i. Prepare journal entries to correct the above errors. Narratives are not required.

ii. Hence derive the opening balance in the suspense account.
