    Explanation:

    Preparation of the journal entry for Sales and for Cash Over and Short for each of the following separate situations.

    1. Since the cash register's record already shows $420 of the cash sales in which the count of cash in the register was $430 this means we have to record the transaction as:

    Dr Cash Over and Short $10

    ($430-$420)

    Cr Sales $420

    2 ... Since the cash register's record already shows $972 of the cash sales in which the count of cash in the register was $980 this means we have to record the transaction as:

    Dr Cash $980

    Dr Cash Over and Short $8

    ($980-$972)

    Cr Sales $972
