    Probably be best to use an example - Fred Purchased a new piece of equipment for £500. The only entry which is made in the accounts is to the bank.<BR><BR>We know that the entry would be DR Equipment cost CR Bank.<BR><BR>The question states that the banking entry has been made but no other entry therefore the Dr would have gone to suspense account instead of equipment<BR><BR>The journal would be to to Cr suspense (to remove the entry from the suspense account) and Dr equipment cost.<BR><BR>In the T you would already have the Dr entry of £500 so you would simply do a Cr to equipment for £500 to bring back to nil<BR><BR>Hope this is understandable - I' not very good at explaining
