Answer:
The amount of Supplies Expense for the accounting period is $8,800
Explanation:
Supplies Expense for the accounting period = Beginning Office Supplies balance + Purchased Office Supplies - Ending Office Supplies balance
In the case:
Office Supplies had a beginning balance of $5,700. The amount of purchasing Office Supplies were $5,100.
On the last day of the accounting period, the amount of office supplies on hand were $2,000
Supplies Expense = $5,700 + $5,100 - $2,000 = $8,800
