IS ENTRY CORRECT? IF YES THEN,  WILL BE ENTRY FOR RECEIPT VOUCHER OR JOURNAL VOUCHER?

IF NO, THEN WHAT WILL BE ENTRY?

Yes, entry is correct and use receipt voucher to record this entry because Journal Vouchers are used to adjust the debit and credit amounts without involving the cash or bank accounts.

Alternatively, u can make 2 entries also:

1) Journal: Rent Dr To Deposit (for adjustment)

2) Receipt: Bank Dr To Deposit (for balance received)
