DDOROURKE123

hi,

i am currently doing my level 2, and i cant get passed journals. i doing home learning with eagle education and they have said i'm getting call tomorrow from a tutor but i want to know something before they call so i know what they are on about. (if you get me?)

so i was doing a mock exam and everything was doing good and i thought bank reconciliation was hard, journals is from another planet!!!

here's the question

Task 2

The errors that follow have been found in the double-entry bookkeeping system.

a) Prepare journals to correct the errors (remember debits = credits!)
b) Post journals to the suspense account (if required)

I. Decorating costs for premises were incorrect posted to fixed assets totalling £6,500 (ignore VAT)
II. General expenses of £806.99 were credited to the general expenses account
III. Wages and salaries were correctly recorded in the cash book as £13,024.60, but were accidentally posted to the main ledger as £10,324.60.

Journal | Debit £ | Credit £
