ABC Supplies is a business based in the Huon Valley, supplying apple trees to a number of retail
nurseries in Tasmania. The business is registered for GST. The owner David Branch is a qualified
horticulturalist and manages the nursery organising shipments and managing a small retail store
selling to the public direct. David’s bookkeeper has just retired and he asks you if you can help him
to record the transactions for June. As you are studying accounting he also asks you to finish off the
books for the year and prepare some financial statements for him. The bookkeeper has been keeping
the records manually but David is keen for you to use Excel to complete the various records each
month.
Other Information:
 David sells three varieties of apple trees, Pink Lady, Royal Gala and Golden Delicous.
 Credit terms are 2/10, n/30.
 All transactions are recorded on the day they occur.
 Assume transactions are on credit unless it is stated otherwise.
 Transaction amounts are “GST inclusive” were relevant.
 David uses a perpetual inventory system and the First-in, First-out method to assign costs to
Cost of Goods Sold.
 All cash payments are initially recorded as an expense or revenue. Any work not completed
or unused portion is adjusted at the end of the month.
 Expenses that are incurred but not paid at the end of the month are entered the general journal
at the end of the month.
 For convenience, round all figures to the nearest dollar (you can get Excel to do this for you
by showing no cents).

You are required to:

Subsidiary Ledger cards for the three items of inventory as you go so that you can calculate the
Cost of Goods Sold for each lot of sales.

2. Post the journals to the general ledger at the end of the month (and post to the subsidiary ledger
daily). The ledger accounts have been created for you but you will firstly need to enter the
opening balances in each account on 1st June. NOTE: the income and expense accounts will have

control accounts.
