    Option E Debit another asset account for $2,400.

    Explanation:

    The other account which was debited with an excess amount to credit entry is $2400. This requires an adjustment for $2400 with credit entry to balance the credit and debit entry. So the only entry with debit is incorrect here which will not balance the entry and increase the difference between credit and debit.

    So the option E is the option here which is will not complete the recording of transaction.
