Answer to Problem 2PSA
When assets are invested into the business, all assets are debited, and the capital account is credited.
Asset purchase on cash requires the asset accounts to be debited and the cash account is credited.
Expenses paid in advance before they are accrued represents asset and hence debited and cash is credited.
Income earned in cash requires the cash account to be debited and income or revenue account is credited. Similarly, for income earned but not received in cash, an asset for receivable is debited and revenue is credited.
For asset purchase on credit, the asset account is debited, and the liability account is credited.
When trade payable is settled through payment, liability account is debited, and cash account is credited.
When cash is collected from the receivable asset, cash is debited, and the receivable is credited.
In case the owner withdraws cash from the business, the withdrawals account is debited, and cash is credited.
For expenses paid in cash, the expense account is debited, and cash is credited.

A trial balance is prepared to show the arithmetical accuracy of the ledgers so posted. However, this does not guarantee that accounts are prepared correctly. The trial balance serves as the prima facie document to show that the ledger balances are properly recorded from the journal.
To Prepare:
A trial balance as at June 30.
