Ledgers
• General Ledger – Summarizes the transactions in journals by account balances
• Every account has a general ledger.
• Companies design the number of general ledger accounts (Chart of Accounts). Varies across companies. Usually follows the financial
statements format
• All transactions recorded in journals need to be posted on general ledger periodically, in our case, monthly.
• For special journals, such as the sales journal, only post the monthly totals of each account on general ledger.
• For general journals, each individual transaction is posted to the general ledger
• General ledger of Balance sheet accounts includes the accumulated net total of all transactions since the inception f the company.
• Income statement accounts are closed to retained earnings (a stockholder’s equity account) at the end of year.
• Subsidiary ledgers
• Ledger to support the general ledger and keep details of a general ledger account.
• For accounts with subsidiary ledgers, post individual transactions to the subsidiary ledger but only the totals from journal to the general
ledger.
• The total balance of a subsidiary ledger should agree to the corresponding general ledger account.
• Accounts receivable ledgers – one ledger for one customer
• Accounts Payable Ledgers – One ledger for one major vendor (transactions with less frequently used vendor are posted on general ledger)
• Employee Earnings Subsidiary Ledger – one ledger for each employee
• Fixed asset subsidiary ledger – one ledger for each type of fixed asset
