Answer :

Sure! Let’s go through each transaction step-by-step and update the T-accounts accordingly. We will start with the initial balances for each account and then apply each transaction.

### Initial Balances:
- Cash: \[tex]$2200 - Accounts Receivable: \$[/tex]3000
- Supplies: \[tex]$280 - Accounts Payable: \$[/tex]2300
- Deferred Revenue: \[tex]$180 - Service Revenue: \$[/tex]0
- Advertising Expense: \[tex]$0 ### Transactions: 1. Provided services on credit: - Debit: Accounts Receivable, \$[/tex]1500
- Credit: Service Revenue, \[tex]$1500 T-Accounts After Transaction 1: - Accounts Receivable: \$[/tex]3000 + \[tex]$1500 = \$[/tex]4500
- Service Revenue: \[tex]$0 + \$[/tex]1500 = \[tex]$1500 2. Received cash payment for services: - Debit: Cash, \$[/tex]800
- Credit: Service Revenue, \[tex]$800 T-Accounts After Transaction 2: - Cash: \$[/tex]2200 + \[tex]$800 = \$[/tex]3000
- Service Revenue: \[tex]$1500 - \$[/tex]800 = \[tex]$700 3. Purchased supplies on account: - Debit: Supplies, \$[/tex]200
- Credit: Accounts Payable, \[tex]$200 T-Accounts After Transaction 3: - Supplies: \$[/tex]280 + \[tex]$200 = \$[/tex]480
- Accounts Payable: \[tex]$2300 + \$[/tex]200 = \[tex]$2500 4. Paid for advertising in cash: - Debit: Advertising Expense, \$[/tex]150
- Credit: Cash, \[tex]$150 T-Accounts After Transaction 4: - Cash: \$[/tex]3000 - \[tex]$150 = \$[/tex]2850
- Advertising Expense: \[tex]$0 + \$[/tex]150 = \[tex]$150 5. Received cash in advance for services: - Debit: Cash, \$[/tex]300
- Credit: Deferred Revenue, \[tex]$300 T-Accounts After Transaction 5: - Cash: \$[/tex]2850 + \[tex]$300 = \$[/tex]3150
- Deferred Revenue: \[tex]$180 - \$[/tex]300 = \[tex]$(120) ### Final Balances: - Cash: \$[/tex]3150
- Accounts Receivable: \[tex]$4500 - Supplies: \$[/tex]480
- Accounts Payable: \[tex]$2500 - Deferred Revenue: \$[/tex](120)
- Service Revenue: \[tex]$700 - Advertising Expense: \$[/tex]150

These represent the ending balances for each T-account after considering all transactions.
