REQUIRED:
Prepare for the month of December 2018, the Debtors Ledger Control and Purchases
Ledger Control accounts. [12]Please do not simply type out a full question and expect to be provided with a full answer. You must have an answer in the same book in which you found the question, so ask about whatever it is in the answer that you are not clear about and then I will explain.
Everything needed to answer this question is covered in my free lectures on Control Accounts (and I actually work through a very similar example to this one). The lectures are a complete free course for Paper FA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
(Obviously you cannot be asked to prepare the accounts in the exam, but you are expected to understand each of the necessary entries.)
