Ledger Accounts
Sales Day Book, Sales Returns Day Book, Purchases Day Book and Purchases Returns Day book entries are transferred to the Ledger accounts:
Debtors Ledger: these are the accounts of debtors or customer i.e. people who owe the business money.
Creditors Ledger: these are the accounts of creditors or suppliers i.e. people the business owe money to.
Double-entry Bookkeeping system
•In your study of double entry so far, every accounting entry is based on the double-entry principle. There are two aspects to every transaction. The basic rule is:
•DEBIT – Assets and Expenses
•CREDIT – Liabilities and Revenue
If a business wanted to reduce an asset or an expense – entry on the credit side of asset or expense account.
If a business wanted to reduce a liability or revenue – entry on the debit side of the liability or income account.
It follows that if all the debit and credits are entered correctly in the ledger at the end of the accounting period the totals of the debits will equal the totals of the credits.
These balances are listed in a Trial Balance.
A business will have ASSETS. These are something of value for example: •Buildings•Motor Vehicles•Delivery Vans•Equipment•Cash •Stock (items for resale)
Your business will also have LIABILITIES. These are something you owe for example:•Loan•Bank Overdraft
If you sell on credit, you owe money to a Debtor.If you buy on credit, a Creditor owes you money.
Is a Debtor an Asset or a Liability?
Is a Creditor an Asset or a Liability?
Discussion
When a business is starting up it requires Capital and this money is lodged in the Bank.
Which of the underlined words is the ASSET and which is the LIABILITY? Explain why?
All transactions can be recorded in 4 different types of accounts:
ASSETS – resources owned by a business such as land, buildings, machinery etc.
LIABILITIES – these are amounts owed by the business to outsiders such as bank overdraft, long term loans, creditors, capital and owners equity.
EXPENSES – these are costs suffered in generating the revenue of a business such as wages, rent, light and heat etc.
REVENUE – these are earnings from selling goods and services or other income earned such as bank interest, sales
An account is maintained for every Asset, Liability and every category of expense and revenue.
Rules of Entry – Recording transactions affecting Assets, Liabilities and Capital
Rule 1
To record an increase in an Asset – Debit the Account
To record a decrease in an Asset – Credit the account
Asset A/C
Rule 2
To record an increase in a Liability – Credit the Account
To record a decrease in a Liability – Debit the Account
Liability A/C
