    Journal Entry : The journal entry is a recording of transactions which have two sides i. e. debit side and credit side. Debit side records all expenditures and losses, whereas credit side records income and gains.

    (a) The entry which Bridgeport should make is shown below:

    Cash A/c Dr $294

    Bank charge expense Dr ($300 * 2%) = 6

    To Sales Revenue $300

    (b) The entry which Sarasota should make, given a service charge of 2% on the amount of receivables sold is shown below:

    Cash A/c Dr $74,480

    Bank charge expense Dr ($76,000 * 2%) = $1,520

    To Accounts Receivable $76,000
