如何简易记得Control
account 的方法,不用辛苦的背。
这是我从中学补习老师那里学来的很好用 ~分享给大家
就是在ledger
上面加(+
- )的符号,只要想着是supplier
or customer 和 欠账(增加就放在+
side,欠账减少就 – side)一直问自己欠账增加还是减少就可以了。
就是这样罢了

然后呢
题目一定是要你找
1-Sales /
Purchase
2- bal
c/d (Closing balance)
3- bank
这三个里面的一个
**contra 一定是两个a/c(Receivables
&Payables ledger control account)减的side
** 找出来的Purchase/Sales是欠账的(credit
sales),还没加 cash sales。
看清楚题目要的是credit
sales amount 还是total
sales!
