Forums › Ask ACCA Tutor Forums › Ask the Tutor ACCA FA – FIA FFA › bookkeeping question about start up capital
I have been revisiting some bookkeeping and the question gave the following information.
01/05/2014 started business with £8000 in cash
02/05/2014 put £7500 of cash into a bank account
What are the accounting entries required?
I thought for 01/05/2014 it would be DR Cash 8000, CR capital 8000
then for 02/05/2014 DR bank 7500, CR cash 7500
but in the further information about the rest of the month’s transactions it does not make reference to the remaining £500 of the start up cash which is not put in the bank account. So I am unsure what to do with it?
Many thanks
Madeleine
Without seeing the whole question, it would seem that the 500 just stays in the cash account!
I do suggest that you watch our free lectures for Paper F3 – they are a complete course and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
