Accounting Principles Portfolio Questions Topics 3 & 4 BZ102

This accounting assignment covers two main questions. The first question assesses the application of GST to various business transactions, requiring students to determine if GST is applicable, calculate the amount, and identify the source documents. The second question focuses on transaction analysis and posting to the general ledger for Sister’s Tiling Service. Students are required to post journal entries (from previous portfolio tasks) to T-format general ledger accounts and then prepare a trial balance. The assignment includes provided journal entries and general ledger information to assist in the completion of the tasks. The goal is to demonstrate understanding of accounting processes, including recording transactions, applying GST principles, and preparing financial statements.
