USING A TRANSACTION ANALYSIS CHART TO UNDERSTAND TRANSACTIONS

� Understanding transactions is fundamental to accounting.

� A transaction analysis chart is a tool to help you understand transactions. It is not

a formal accounting record - just a tool. It will assist you to apply the debit and

credit rules of accounting. This is what a (blank) transaction analysis chart looks

like:

We will use a chart like this with some practical exercises soon but first let's recap some very important accounting concepts

� An account is a detailed record for every item of value associated with a business.

� There are five categories of accounts. These are: Proprietorship (also known as

Capital or Owner's Equity), Expenses, Assets, Revenue, Liabilities. A simple way to remember the categories of account is the acronym PEARL. Accounts are located in an orderly and logical manner according to their category and can be found summarised (or indexed) in a Chart of Accounts.

� Every business will have a Chart of Accounts which suits its needs. That means

that no two businesses will have exactly the same Chart of Accounts. However, every Chart of Accounts will be similar in that it will have the five categories of accounts. Also, many accounts are commonly used eg Cash at Bank, wages & salaries, loan accounts, capital, sales and so on.

� The most basic accounting equation is Assets = Equities (ie internal and external

liabilities). However, it is more practical to express the equation as: Assets = Liabilities + Proprietorship.

A simple way to remember this is A = L + P. The Balance Sheet report of a business reflects this equation.

If A = L + P then the following must also be true L = A- P and

P = A - L

� The expanded accounting is Assets + Expenses = Proprietorship + Liabilities + Revenue. The Profit & Loss report of a business reflects the revenue and expenses part of this equation.

� The debit and credit rules of accounting are based on the above accounting

equation. The following table may help you to remember the rules:

Remember the following rules:

an increase in an asset or expense ledger

THE OPENING ENTRY

The Opening Entry lists balances for all Assets, Liabilities and Capital at the commencement of the business. The transaction is recorded in the General Journal and then posted to the General Ledger. All General Journal transactions are accompanied by a ‘narration’, which describes the transaction. Activity 1 has been completed for your reference.

The particulars information is the opposite account in the transaction. In the opening entry all accounts are opposite to Capital, therefore, Capital is entered but in the Capital account, Sundries is entered. (See below)

1 Account Service Fee on Overdue Account Memo: Our creditors will charge us interest on any overdue accounts. For example, our creditor, Riley Mills has advised us they will charge 2% pa on our unpaid account. We adjust the ledger accounts by creating a general journal entry. Calculation: We owe $20,000 from August. 20,000 X 2% ÷ 12 = $33.33 + 10% GST = $36.66 General Ledger Accounts (a double entry): Account Service Fee is an expense (increase) and therefore a DEBIT. Accounts Payable is a liability (increase) and therefore a CREDIT.

2 Correction of Errors On rare occasions an error is made in posting! For example, a purchase of $1000 from BJ Lewis (invoice #1002) may have been incorrectly posted to J Lewis & Co from the Purchases Journal.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE 3 Charge Account Service Fee on Overdue Account Your business may charge an Account Service Fee on customer’s accounts which are overdue. For example: Our customer, W Ross, has an overdue account and we are charging interest @5%pa. We adjust the ledger accounts by creating a general journal entry. Calculation: W Ross owes $10,000 from August. 10,000 X 5% ÷ 12 = $41.67 + 10% GST = $45.83 General Ledger Accounts (a double entry): Accounts Receivable is an asset (increase) and therefore a DEBIT.

4 Write Off Bad Debt Memo: We have been informed that one of our debtors has been declared bankrupt. In this case we would write the account off as a bad debt. For example: J Sparks owes us $1100.00. Calculation of GST: Total amount owed includes GST. GST = 1100 ÷ 11 GST = 100

General Ledger Accounts (a double entry): Bad Debts Account is an expense (increase) and therefore a DEBIT. GST Collected must be reversed and is therefore a DEBIT. Accounts Receivable liability (decrease) and is therefore a CREDIT. Accounts Receivable Ledger (a single entry): Credit J Sparks account to show their balance is now Nil.
