Respuesta :

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
