Instant Person-Just add coffee.

Poet, there are many out here  who could answer your homework problem for you, but what would you be learning if we did?  Accounting is a step-by-step process, and if you fail, along the way,  to understand each entry and how it relates to other entries, you will soon become more confused. As you get further along in your courses, it will be harder and harder for you to understand. Accounting is very difficult and there is virtually no memorization, only understanding the processes of financial statements.  I wish you good luck on getting through this.
