Answer 1

$2300 of supplies; $3200 of supplies expense

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the supplies expense is shown below

= Supplies balance + Purchased of supplies - supplies on hand

= $1,400 + $4,100 - $2,300

= $3,200

Along with it, the journal entry is also recorded for better understanding

Supplies expense A/c Dr $3,200

To supplies A/c $3,200

(Being supplies account is adjusted)

The closing balance of supplies is $2,300 and supplies expense would be $3,200
