    A debit to Cash for $5,120, a credit to Cash Overage for $16, and a credit to Sales Revenue for $5,104.

    Explanation:

    In the current situation, the cash received is in excess of revenue recorded, thus, there will be cash overage.

    As per books cash shall be $5,104 but since actual cash is $5,120 there is cash overage of $16

    Therefore, for this, actual cash received shall be debited = $1,520

    Cash overage shall be credited for $16

    And accordingly sales of $5,104 shall be recorded as a credit.

    Thus, correct option is: Entry A
