Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Record cash received

Cash received is $105, so the Cash account is debited for $105 as cash is an asset and an increase in an asset is debited. Debit Cash $105

Step2: Record sales amount

The sales amount as per the tape is $100. The Sales account is a revenue account and revenue is credited, so the Sales account is credited for $100. Credit Sales $100

Step3: Account for the over - collection

The extra $5 collected ($105 - $100) is treated as a miscellaneous revenue. The Cash Over and Short account is used to record such discrepancies. Since it is an over - collection (a gain), the Cash Over and Short account is credited for $5. Credit Cash Over and Short $5

Answer:

  • The Cash account will be debited for $105.
  • The extra $5 collected will be treated as a miscellaneous revenue.
  • The Sales account will be credited for $100.
  • The Cash Over and Short account will be credited for $5.
