    Sir here is a question that I need you to help me solve . The text book didn’t explain in detail the results . I mean the General ledger was not clear at all.

    Jack Uzi, wholesale toys online, operates out of his office in his parent apartment with 0 inventory.
    Every toy he sells is first purchased then re-sold, but only after the order comes through. You need to
    help him out with his bookkeeping. The following transactions occurred in October:

    a. Paid £500 for lease of computer equipment in advance for November
    b. Cash Sales of £4,847. (for stuffed animal)
    c. Cash sales of £4,486 (for Educational Toys)
    d. Cash sales of £4,702 (for Video Games)
    e. Cash Sales of £1,827 (for Pretend-play toys)
    f. Purchase of office supplies on account from Bing’s Office Supply, £416.
    g. Withdrawal by owner (Jack Uzi) of £1,600.
    h. Payment on account (Bing’s), £390.
    i. Payment of wages with cash, £2,500.
    j. Payment for cleaning services with cash, £74
    k. Payment to purchase stuffed animal, £4,044
    l. Payment to purchase Educational Toys, £3,547
    m. Payment to purchase Video Games, £4,169
    n. Payment to purchase Pretend-play toys, £1,382

    Further, he has account balances for the beginning of October as follows:

    Cash £ 2,000

    Accounts Payable, Bing’s
    Office Supply Hut
    £ 75

    Office Supplies £ 75

    Jack Uzi, Capital £ 2000

    Instructions:
    1. Prepare books of original entries (Sales journal, purchase journal, cash journal)
    2. Prepare the general ledger
    3. Jack checked his bank balance and he noticed that his actual cash balance was £20 less due
    to overdraft fees, make the necessary adjustments
    4. Prepare a trial balance for October 31 2017
    5. Prepare a cash Flow Statement for October 31, 2017
    6. Prepare an Income Statement for the period ending October 31, 2017
    7. Prepare a Balance Sheet for October 31, 2017

    The cash journals
    We have in the debit side sales figure + the opening balance of £2000.

    While all the cash payment for purchase were on the credit side plus other items such withdrawals, wages, prepayment lease purchase for the computer equipment.

    All those journals I can do it but the general ledger I can’t . Pls help me

    I do not know which book you are using, but books of original entry are no longer examinable in Paper FA, and you cannot be asked a question of this type anyway in the exam.

    Have you watched all of our free lectures? They are a complete free course for the current syllabus and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
