2) Record transactions using journal entries: Suppose Mask, Inc. identified the following transactions during January 2018:

1/1/18: Purchased inventory worth $11,300 on account.

1/3/18: Sold inventory, which originally cost $2,750, for $3,180 on account to customers.

1/15/18: Paid $5,000 cash to suppliers from transaction a.

1/20/18: Received $1,700 cash payment from customers in transaction b.

1/31/18: Paid $2,250 cash for January wages.

Record all of the above transactions using journal entries (HINT: there will be two separate entries to record for transaction b.). I have completed transaction a. for you as an example. Assume Mask, Inc, uses the following accounts: Cash, A/R, Inventory, A/P, Sales Revenue, Cost of Goods Sold (COGS), Wages Expense.

1/1/18                                                       DEBIT             CREDIT
