Books Of Prime Entry
Übersicht
Imagine posting every single credit sale straight into the ledger. A busy shop with hundreds of sales a day would bury its sales account under endless entries. Books of prime entry solve this. They are the books where a transaction is recorded first, before it ever reaches the ledger. They group similar transactions together, strip detail out of the ledger, and let the book-keeping be shared among several people. Every transaction begins its life in one of these books.
In this lesson you will meet all seven books of prime entry, learn which document fills each one and which ledger each one posts to, and practise writing up the cash book, the journals and the petty cash book. You will master trade and cash discount, the dual role of the cash book as both a book of prime entry and a ledger account, and the imprest system that keeps petty cash under control. These are the everyday mechanics of real book-keeping.
