    3 The discount columns in the cash book had not been posted to the general ledger. Discounts
    allowed totalled $530 and discounts received totalled $370.

    so in to solve this error i have to
    Debut: Discounts allowed 530

    Credit: Discounts received 370
    Suspense 160

    Can someone explain why i have to credit suspense 160, like why should both discount allowed and recieved balance?, i am an A level student and i know this is for ACCA but i just couldnt find another website for help

    This is the general forum for non-exam-specific questions. You need to post to an FA forum.
