INTRODUCTION
The main purpose of this report is to understand basic concepts about types of business
transactions such as sales, purchases, receipts and payments. Double entry book-keeping is the
basic principal which works on balancing the figure concept; which means if something debit
from the company than it should credit with equal amount to match final figures. Trial balance is
the technique where closing ledger balance directly transfers to match the figures; it is the strong
method to know about any errors in recording transactions either in journal or trial balance.
Financial statements show internal strength of company; this statement covers profit and loss
account, balance sheet and cash flow statement. Bank reconciliation statement is essential to find
any mismatch between cash book and bank passbook. Project contains different scenarios; each
scenario analyses give separate accounting concept with practical examples.
Task 1.1
Trial balance: It is the method of bookkeeping where all ledgers balances arranged into debit
and credit side column; and balance of both side should match. If not matched; indicates there
some errors like omission, wrong entry and double entry errors. Such mismatch balanced with
the help of suspense account which settles later (Smith, 2019).
Ledger: It is a book of accounts which records journal entries and all ledger accounts showing
opening and closing balances which later adjusted in trial balance (Apostolides, 2016).
