thank youOctober 27, 2016 at 7:30 am #346220Have you been watching my lectures? They are a complete free course for Paper F3 and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
You need to write up a control account for payables (a total payables account). You are given everything needed to be able to write up the t-account apart from the figure for purchases, so this will be the missing figure to make the account balance.
I do suggest that you watch my free lectures on control accounts.
October 27, 2016 at 2:32 pm #346287I already watch the lectures and they are great thank you for that
but sometimes I don’t really understand the question itself and with a bit of help all became clearOctober 27, 2016 at 2:47 pm #346295I am pleased that it has become clear 🙂
