Answer 1

Answer -

Here,

All expenses were allocated to program services and support services in the percentages:

Public health education = 40%

Community service = 20%

Management and general = 20%

Fund-raising = 20%

So,

All expenses such as Rent expense, Salaries and benefits expense, Telephone expense, Printing and postage expense, Utilities expense, Supplies expense, Depreciation expense and Provision for uncollectible pledges.

All expenses = $35100 + $224760 + $5300 + $12100 + $8400 + $4400 + $3995 + $20200

All expenses = $314255

So,

No.	Transaction	General Journal	Debit	Credit
