Not too sure what exactly you've done or your question but keep in mind the payable arises as you incur the expense even if you don't pay it. e.g. at the period end, before you have received an invoice, you could accrue for the expense by Dr Electricity Expense, Cr Expense Payable.

hey im stuck on the first page as i reckon all the transactions (7) impacted the control account Cash at Bank but there are only 3 slots in front of me so I can't record all 7 answers. Help! Is there a chance some cheques that weren't processed through the bank this week are only recorded next week instead?? Some of the transactions are a customer paid accounts receivable, purchase of office supplies, wages expense, and giving two cheques out to pay for prepaid rent and something else. Thanks in advance!

after getting a hang of it - i kinda enjoy it...

Perdisco was easy , but it took far too long.

I only ended up losing like 10 points altogether. So I got something like 1040/1050. It's out of like 1000 points, so 10 points means literally nothing for final grade.

There are two cash journals, one is cash payment(cash outflow) and the other is cash receipt(cash inflow). You record it in those journals. You do not need to post to cash ldegers yet until enod month where you do it all in one go. E.g. Dr Cash Cr CRJ, Dr CPJ Cr Cash. Well at least for the firm's policy I had for last year's perdisco

I prefer fins cause it's more quantitative. Acct has qualitative elements that involves BSing the whole time.

If they were items you bought to later sell (i.e. inventory) then wouldn't it be Cr to Inventory (to reduce it by the $5,120) and Dr Credit Note Asset (or Cash and Cash Equivalents)?

1. General Journal: DR APC Moon Megasystems, CR Inventory (5120)
2. Subsidiary Ledger- APC Moon Megasystems: DR 5120
3. Inventory Journal: Record it in the Purchases ledger, but you put '-5' under units and '-5120' under total cost.
