2.4 Expenses figures

As with the sales and purchases, a ledger account is prepared which includes all
known figures. The missing figure is the amount required to make the account
balance.

This can be simplified using the following ledger account:

Expense account
Date Details $ Date Details $

01 Jan Prepayment b/d X 01 Jan Accrual b/d X
In year Bank X In year P&L (β figure) X

31 Dec Accrual c/d X 31 Dec Prepayment c/d X
