The purpose of adjusting entries is to adjust the revenue, and the expenses during the period in which they actually occurs.

To journalize: The adjusting transactions as given in the books of Company BB, and post adjusting entries to T-accounts.

(e)

Expert Solution

Explanation of Solution

The adjusting journal entries in the book of Company BB at the end of the August month are as follows:

1. An adjusting entry for Supplies expenses:

In this case, Company BB recognized the supplies expenses at the end of the August month. So, the necessary adjusting entry that the Company BB should record to recognize the supplies expense is as follows:

Date	Account Titles and Description	Debit ($)	Credit ($)
Aug 31, 2017	Supplies expenses (1)	870
	Supplies		870
	(To record the supplies expenses incurred at the end of the August)

Table (3)

Working note:

Calculate the value of supplies expense at end of the August month

Supplies expense = (The amount of supplies begining of the August month)−(The amount of supplies on hand at the end of the August month)=($1,830–$960)=$870 (1)

Description:

Supplies expense decreases the value of stockholders’ equity by $870; hence debit the supplies expenses for $870.
Supplies are an asset, and it decreases the value of asset by $870, hence credit the supplies for $870.

2. An adjusting entry for salaries and wages payable:
