Estimates
The estimate of bad debt expense at the end of the
period is an example of an adjusting entry that requires
an estimate.
Assume that Dress Right’s management determines that
of the $2,000 of accounts receivable recorded at July 31,
only $1,500 will ultimately be collected. Prepare the
adjusting entry for July 31.

Appendix 2B: Reversing Entries
Reversing entries remove the effects of some of
the adjusting entries made at the end of the
previous reporting period for the sole purpose of
simplifying journal entries made during the new
period. Reversing entries are optional and are
used most often with accruals.
McGraw-Hill /Irwin
Slide 36
Appendix 2C: Subsidiary Ledgers
Subsidiary ledgers contain a group of subsidiary
accounts associated with particular general ledger
control accounts. Subsidiary ledgers are commonly
used for accounts receivable, accounts payable,
plant and equipment, and investments.
For example, there will be a subsidiary
ledger for accounts receivable that keeps
track of the increases and decreases in the
accounts receivable balance for each of the
company’s customers purchasing goods
and services on credit.
After all of the postings are made from the appropriate journals, the balance
in the accounts receivable control account should equal the sum of the
balances in the accounts receivable subsidiary ledger accounts.
McGraw-Hill /Irwin
Slide 37
Appendix 2C: Special Journals
Special journals are used to capture the dual
effect of repetitive types of transactions in
debit/credit form.
Special journals simplify the recording process in the following ways:
1.
Journalizing the effects of a particular transaction is made more efficient
through the use of specifically designed formats.
2.
Individual transactions are not posted to the general ledger accounts but are
accumulated in the special journals and a summary posting is made on a
periodic basis.
3.
The responsibility for recording journal entries for the repetitive types of
transactions is placed on individuals who have specialized training in handling
them.
Let’s look at some special journals.
McGraw-Hill /Irwin
Slide 38
Sales Journal
Sales journals record all credit sales. Every
entry in the sales journal has the same effect
on the accounts; the sales revenue account
is credited and the accounts receivable
control account is debited.
