Bravo Unlimited

Adjustment Entry

Date Particulars Debit Credit

February 29 Supplies Expense 12500

Supplies Account 12500

(Opening bal + purchases - Ending bal = Expense = 2000 + 12000 - 1500 = 12500

At the month end Supplies were used for $ 12500 and supplies on hand are $ 1500.

On 2nd Feb the supplies account totalled $ 14000 but $5000 supplies had been expensed so the total amount of supplies used up is calculated by (Opening bal + purchases - Ending bal = Expense) the formula given above.
