NOTES

1. The accountant debited Accounts Receivable for $5,000 but did not credit Laundry Revenue. This adjusting entry represents accrued laundry revenue.
2. The accountant debited rather than credited Laundry Supplies for $3,000.
3. The accountant credited the prepaid insurance account for $3,600, but debited the insurance expense account for only $600.
4. The accountant credited Laundry Equipment for the depreciation expense of $13,000, instead of crediting the accumulated depreciation account.
5. The accountant did not debit Wages Expense for $1,000.
