Overview- Recording and Reporting financial information
You have learned about the financial statements but how do financial transactions get recorded and reported? The goal of this module is to take you through the creation of a journal entry, the posting of the journal entry to the ledger then the transfer of the ledger balances to the financial statements.
This is an individual assignment. To complete this assignment, there is an excel spreadsheet in the Module as your guide. Included in this module are a series of 20 financial transactions.
a. You are to record these financial transactions as journal entries on the left hand side of the spreadsheet. Please include the amount that is debited and the amount that is credited. Note that the proper method to record the credit is a slight indentation from the dr account.
b. In addition, please indicate if the account is located on the Income Statement (IS) or the Balance Sheet (BS). There is a column titled IS/ BS for this entry.
c. Additionally, indicate if the account is an asset (A), liability (L), Net asset (NA), revenue (R) or Expense (E) account. There is a column titled A/L/NA/R/E for this.
d. There should be a total at the end of the journal entries- make sure your debits = your credit balances.
