Question: Ms Jennie Smiles is the major shareholder and chief executive officer of Celebrations Pty Ltd, a ...
Ms Jennie Smiles is the major shareholder and chief executive officer of Celebrations Pty Ltd, a small business which provides organisation services and supplies for parties, wedding receptions and other happy occasions.
Due to the relatively small size of the business Jennie is unable to justify a computerised accounting system thus all accounting is completed manually by ABC Accounting.
Celebrations Pty Ltd uses a perpetual inventory system, noting the cost of all inventory sold is 65% of the sales (GST exclusive) price.
It is now the end of February 2018 and Jennie requests ABC Accounting to complete all necessary accounting to enable the preparation of a trial balance as at 28 February 2018. As the ABC Accounting accountant assigned to Celebrations Pty Ltd you are requested to complete the following tasks using Excel:
(a) Prepare general journal entries to record the February transactions as identified below. Notations/descriptions are required.
(b) Open general ledger accounts (T-Bar OR
Running Balance format) for each account shown on the 31 January
2018 trial balance and
- enter the opening balance (for 1 February 2018) for each account
using the balance as shown in the 31 January 2018 Trial
Balance.
- Post the entries from the general journal to the general ledger
accounts and enter the posting references in the general
journal.
(c) Balance off each general ledger account at 28 February and prepare a trial balance as at 28 February 2018.
Ms Smiles has provided a list of the transactions which occurred during the month of February, as well as the business’s trial balance as at 31 January, 2018.
PLEASE NOTE
i) When a discount is received or allowed, you are required to adjust the associated GST Paid or Collected.
