5. Some supplies may have been used during June but no supplies expense has
been recorded.
As will be discussed in Chapter 3, adjustments are necessary at the end of the 
accounting period to bring the accounts up to date. For example, adjustments
for supplies used, insurance expired, and depreciation would probably be

required by Eco-Centric Designs.
