Step-by-step explanation:

The journal entries are as follows

a. Cash $540

To Account payable $540

(Being the error is recorded)

It is computed below:

= Corrected amount - incorrect amount

= $710 - $170

= $540

b. Bank service charges $20

To Cash $20

(Being the bank services charges are paid in cash is recorded)

All other information is ignored
