I've solved the issue of the 2 entries at the end of my balance inquiry - 
it was the result of a misspelling in one of the entries. I still have the 
issue
of the entry not being correct.

Running 'ledger balance' shows a credit card balance of $2,273.82. It 
should show $208.70.

When I charge something to my card, I record the entry as:

2020/08/01 Barbecue
    Expenses:Dining  $50.00
    Liabilities:Credit_Card

When I pay my credit card bill;
2020/08/02 MyBank
    Liabilities:Credit_Card   $50.00 ; credit card payment
    Assets:Checking

If I'm doing something wrong I have no idea what it could be.

Thank you
