MODULE 6
GENERAL JOURNAL
NOTE TO THE TEACHER:
The purpose of this series of activities is for the learners to determine the double entries that are needed for
journal entries. While it would be best if all learners engaged in all 5 activities, you can split them between
the groups if you are short of time.
The learners are to come up with the necessary entries. You are not to assist them at this stage. The report
back, however, is critical to ensure that all learners understand. Allow different groups to report back on the
different activities and make the necessary entries. You can even ask different groups to ‘crit’ each other. At
this stage, the emphasis is on determining the double entry for the general ledger and the necessary entry(ies) for the debtors ledger. Do not worry about the names of the accounts. This can be sorted out later.
The learners are also encouraged to draw up rough T-accounts, concentrating on the double entry. Make
sure all learners have the necessary columns for the accounting equation. Following this task, you can lead
them into the General Journal by highlighting the roles of the different journals already learnt and that those
entries do not fit in. Hence the need for a new journal.

Note:
Allow learners to come up with their own name for bad debts recovered. You might even find that some
groups credit the Bad Debts account – which is not wrong as it is what we are doing. The concept of materiality, however, dictates that we draw up separate account.

A GJ is necessary to cater for all entries that are not covered by any other journal.
Because the GJ can contain any type of entry, including correction of entries, it is possible for a
disreputable bookkeeper or accountant to cover up errors, omissions, theft and fraud by making
entries in the GJ.
The document is the Journal Voucher. Additional vouchers can be attached to the JV to provide
evidence of why the entry is needed. The JV should be signed by two senior persons in the business (e.g. the owner and the accountant) so that the entries are properly authorised and to reduce
the possibility of fraud and unethical conduct.
(a) The employee could persuade the bookkeeper to put through an entry to Debit Fixed Assets
Written Off and Credit Equipment.
(b) The bookkeeper could write of the account with an entry to Debit Bad debts and Credit Debtors Control (and the Debtor’s personal account in the Debtor’s Ledger), and then not send the
statement to the debtor.
(c) The bookkeeper could put an entry through to Credit Trading stock and Debit any other account, to reduce the value of Trading stock so that a deficit will not be detected when the
stock is counted.
