Hello sir,
First i would like to thank you for this amazing tutoring platform. It has been very helpful
I just watch your lectures on prepayments and I have a question.
Given that the job of the bookkeeper is to simply record transactions in the T account and an insurance is paid for a period of 18months for example....how is the accountant able to identify from just looking at the insurance T account that there is a preparement which does not have to included in the SOPL for that year as T accounts don't have dates. Thank you.

The accountant does not simply look at the t-accounts. The accountant examines the latest invoice entered on each expense account and decides whether there needs to be an accrual or whether there has been a prepayment.
