Without all the numbers that you are dealing with and their reasons for the entry, I am not sure how anyone can really help. Why would you make another entry to offset an earnest money deposit?? I still do not understand the goal. You don't make entries to balance the transaction to get to zero, you adjust your amounts. If the consumer is getting cash back and you don't want them too, then your loan amount is too large.
