    Before passing the journal entry, first, we have to compute the over and short cash balance till date. The computation is shown below:

    Ending cash balance = Opening cash balance + cash sales

    = $150 + $988.62

    = $1,138.62

    And, the cash balance is $1,125.74

    So, the remaining balance is $12.88 which represent short cash balance

    The journal entry is shown below:

    Cash A/c Dr $975.74

    Short cash A/c Dr $12.88

    To Sales A/c $988.62

    (Being cash count recorded)

    The left balance would be debited to the cash account
