Python Budget App – not matching test output

Python
1

I have several tests that are failing for the below error and I am not sure why. The chart and print tests are not implemented yet, just looking at the transactional tests now.

Any pointers?

Notice that function is saving in ledger strings. Tests are expecting in ledger dictionaries with appropriate keys and values.
