The adjusting entry which is to be recorded or passed is shown below:

Explanation:

The adjusting entry which is to be passed for the office supplies on March 31, is as follows:

Supplies expense A/c ... Dr $900

Supplies A/c ... Cr $900

The accounts of supplies expense is debited against the supplies account which is credited.

Supplies used during the year = Beginning office supplies + Purchases during the month - Ending supplies in hand

= $1,750 + $500 - $1,350

= $2,250 - $1,350

= $900
