    A. credit to Cash Short & Over for $10

    Explanation:

    Petty Cash is used to pay the daily expenses of the business. This cash is issued and settled against the expenses tickets received. Sometime cash is calculated as short & over.

    Cash to be reimburse = $200 - $35 = $165

    Total value of Tickets = $130 + $45 = $175

    Cash Short / over = Total of Cash tickets - Cash to be reimburse = $175 - $165 = $10

    Cash balance is over from the balance in the petty cash by $10.

    Journal Entry is as follow

    DR. Office expense $130

    DR. Entertainment Expense $45

    Cr. Cash short & over $10

    Cr. Cash ($200 - $35) $165
