    Answer: The two events are when the fund is being reduced and when the fund is being eliminated.

    Explanation: A petty cash fund is a fund set aside for small transactions in a business.

    This fund is debited when the cash is provided and credited when the fund is being reduced by way of expenses such as postages, printing, stationaries and so on.

    The petty cash fund can also be credited in a journal entry when the fund is being eliminated at the end of the period for which the fund was provided.
