(Being the insurance expense is recorded)

b.  Supplies expense $785 ($1,500 - $715)

            To Supplies $785

(Being the supplies expense is recorded)

We assume the balance of supplies before adjustment is $1,500

c. Depreciation - office equipment $330

          To Accumulated depreciation $330

(Being the depreciation expense is recorded)

d. Salary Dr $325

        To Accrued salary $325

= $4,000 - $3,210

= $790
