    Entry to replenish

    Dr. Expenses $517.5

    Dr. Cash Short $20

    Cr. Cash (675-137.5) $537.5

    Explanation:

    Petty cash is a small amount of fund which is kept in the business for day to day expenses. Cash is issued from this fund for daily small expense which is not appropriate to withdraw from the bank by check.

    The difference between the expenses receipts and cash outflow is cash excess or short.

    In this question there is a cash shortage because the cash payment is more than the receipt received / available.
