    The correct options are both B&D, a credit to cash of $210 and a debit to petty cash fund for $210

    Explanation:

    The amount spent is $210 ($145+$65), which is expected reimbursement to the petty cash fund account in order to bring the back to the float earlier set for petty cash expenses.

    However, for every debit entry there would a corresponding credit, in other words an increase of cash in petty fund account would be debited and a corresponding credit is posted to cash account where the cash emanates from.

    d. a debit to Petty Cash Fund for $210

    Explanation:

    The cash reimbursement system of the petty cash fund operates in a manner such that the expenses incurred and paid from the petty cash fund is reimbursed to the petty cash so that the fund does not go below a minimum balance.

    Total expense from petty cash

    = $65 + $145

    = $210

    These amount would been credited to the petty cash fund and debited to the various expenses. Hence to reimburse the petty cash fund, a debit entry will be posted there for $210
