b. credit to Cash Short and Over for $2.
c. credit to Petty Cash for $91.
d. debit to Cash Short and Over for $2.

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Explanation:

in the journal entry to replenish the petty cash fund, the expenses that this fund has paid must be recognized.

so the first step is option C

journal entry n 1

Expenses (miscellaneous)   $91.

petty cash fund                                $91

and then since the fixed fund has $ 11 in cash, its replacement is for $ 89 to reach the $ 100 fool

journal entry n 2

petty cash fund $ 89

Cash                         $89
