Raul Snyder · Answer 1

Debit total is $63 higher

Explanation:

Since in the given transaction, the total amounts are not equal as they have the wrong amount in account receivable and the fees earned.

As we can see that

Debit to Account receivable = $1,170

Credit to Fees earned = $1,107

The debit total amount is more than by the credit total amount for $63 after deducting it $1,107 from $1,170
