Answer:
Meaning of ledger: Ledger means, a book kept in a business in which different accounts are opened like – accounts related to individuals, accounts related to goods and assets and accounts related to various items of income and expense, based on journal entry or entries in subsidiary books. The term ‘Ledger’ is derived from the word ‘Legger’ which means ‘To keep’. Thus, the entry for a transaction will be recorded in ledger from journal. In short, a book in which different accounts are prepared is known as Ledger or Book of ledger.
Utility: Ledger is the book of accounts in which all types of accounts are kept. On the basis of journal entry, posting is to be made in these accounts. One of the main objects of accounting is to known the financial position of the business on a particular day. Whereas the main object of the ledger is to show, the position of each account in the business. Thus, the purpose of accounting is easily achieved by keeping a ledger.
Initially, transaction is recorded in the journal, therefore it is known as Primary book of accounts. Entries for various transactions are posted from the journal to the ledger. Therefore ledger is known as the Principal or Main book of accounts.
(1) Accounts related to individuals, goods, assets, incomes and expenses are maintained separately in the ledger.
(2) Information related to the transactions of all the accounts is easily available from the ledger.
(3) With the help of ledger, the businessman can easily obtain important business information in future.
Hence, purpose of accounting is not only limited to a recording of monetary receipts and payments. Based on various accounts, a trader can have an idea regarding the financial position, as well as profit-loss of a business. On the basis of summarised summary of accounts, proper decisions regarding business policy can be taken. Necessary and useful information to a trader can be easily and quickly obtained from the ledger. Ledger is an important book of accounts for getting information and making analysis. Therefore, ledger is also known as King of Books.
(4) Explain the importance of a ledger.
Answer:
Points of importance of a ledger are as under:
1. Necessary information : With the help of ledger, the necessary information of an account can be obtained at any particular date.
2. Transaction : Summary of transaction can be known with the help of ledger, e.g.,
(1) Information regarding the total purchase, total sales, total purchase return or sales return of the specific period can be obtained.

Answer:
To get the information easily and to know the business result, are the main objects of the accounts. With this view point, ledger is known as a second important step in the process of accounts. Initially transaction is recorded in the journal, therefore journal is known as Primary books of accounts. While from the journal entries are posted in the ledger therefore ledger is known as the Principal or Main book of accounts. Out of all the books of accounts, ledger is known as the very important book, because from this book, transactions related to the business can be easily understood.
In short, ledger is a book in which systematic and separate summary of all the types of transactions is prepared. In this way, from the ledger, information related to the transactions of all the accounts is easily avialable. And from that, the financial position of the business and result of the business can be clearly known. Thus, with the view point of utilities and importance, ledger is the principal book of accounts or ledger is the King of Books.
(6) Give the detailed information regarding different forms (types) of ledger.
Answer:
Different forms (types) of ledger are as follows :
1. Bound book ledger,
2. Loose leaves ledger and
3. Card ledger.
1. Bound book ledger: This ledger is in the form of bound book. Most of the small traders follow such type of ledger to maintain their accounts. In the beginning of it, index is given and thereafter each page is serially numbered. As and when it is required, new pages can’t be added in this type of ledger because it is a book in bound form. This type of ledger is less expensive and easy from the view point of preservation.
2. Loose leaves ledger : This type of ledger is in filed form. In this system, in place of card, loose leaves or registers with necessary columns are kept. These loose leaves are kept in-between two thick papers or in-between two metal sheets. On the left-hand side of the page sufficient blank space is kept so that it can be systematically punched and can be kept in a binder. In this system, old pages can be removed and new pages can be added just like the card ledger. The structure is connected with a special type of lock. As it is with lock system, it ensures facility of safety. Of course, overall it is an expensive form. This system of ledger generally used by the banks, insurance companies, big companies, etc.
3. Card ledger: In this system, a separate card is maintained for each account. These cards are kept in a steel cabinet. They are arranged on a steel bar in order so that necessary card is easily available. In this system unnecessary or unwanted cards can be removed and new card can be placed in-between. This type of ledger is more safely because all the cards are preserved in a special steel or wooden cabinet and cabinet can be looked also. However, this is an expensive form.
(7) What is posting ? Explain the process of posting with the help of simple journal entry.
Answer:
Meaning of posting : From the recorded transactions in the journal or in the subsidiary books, the process of recording the debit or credit effect of a transaction in the relevant accounts is known as posting. From journal or subsidiary books, the process of recording as per the rules of accounting, either on debit or credit side of a relevant account, is known as posting.
Posting of simple journal entry : According to double entry accounting system, every transaction has two effects : one on debit side and other on credit side, so if the amount is posted in one account on debit side, then on opposite side with the same amount, entry is posted in the other account on credit side. In simple journal entry posting on debit side of any account means, to write the amount on debit side of an account with the name of credited account is to be written in the particulars column. While posting credit side of any account means to write the amount of credit side of an account with the name of debited account is to be written in the particulars column. We try to understand this explanation by the following example :
Example: On 10 June, 2019; Goods purchased from Mayur worth ? 2,000. Write journal entry and post the same in ledger.
In the journal entry of above transaction two accounts are there. In the ledger, therefore two accounts will be opened. Purchase account and Mayur’s account. As per the rule of posting, as discussed earlier, the account which is to be debited (Here purchase account), then on debit side of that account the amount will be written (Here ₹ 2,000). And in the particulars column, the account which is on credit side, the name of that account will be written (Here Mayur’s account), And in the amount column ₹ 2,000 will be written. Thereafter, the account which is to be credited (Here Mayur’s account), on credit side of that account, the amount will be written (Here ₹ 2,000). And in the particulars column, the account which is on debit side, the name of that account will be written (Here Purchase account). And in the amount column ₹ 2,000 will be written.
(8) Explain the process of posting of a combined journal entry.
Answer:
Posting of combined journal entry: When combined journal entry is recorded, one effect is given in one account and second effect is given to two or more accounts, at that time the account in which the first effect is there, in that, the name of all accounts having second effect will be written.- While in the accounts having second effect the name of the first effect account will be written.
Example: On June 10, 2019 : Paid ? 12.000 for salary and ? 4,000 for rent. Pass the journal entry and post it in ledger.
Explanation : Here, in the transaction Salary account, Rent account and Cash account are connected. Salary account and Rent account are debited while only Cash account is credited. So, on the debit side of Salary account and Rent account, the name of credited account, i.e., Cash account will be written in the particulars column and in the amount column, the amount of every account will be shown separately, while in the Cash account, on the credit side, the name of debited accounts, i.e., Salary account and Rent account will be written in the particulars column and in the amount column, against each account the debited amount will be written.
However, in the combined journal entry, when the debit effect is given to more than one account, and credit effect is also given to more than one account, at that time, against every debited account which account is to be credited or against every credited account which account is to be debited, is a difficult task to decide. In such circumstances, in each account, whether debited or credited, in the particulars column write ‘Miscellaneous account’ and write the concern account amount which is written in the journal entry against that account.
(9) Give the meaning of the classification of ledgers and explain this classification in detail.
Answer:
Ledger: A systematic summary of the transactions related to every individual, goods-assets and incomes-expenditures means an account. A book is known as Ledger in which accounts of individuals, goods-assets and incomes-expenses are kept.
Generally when the size of business is small and number of transactions are very much limited, in that case all the accounts are included in one ledger only. But when the size of the business and number of transactions are increased then certain difficulties arises for maintaining all the accounts in one ledger. Therefore question of division of ledger arose.
Classification (i.e., division) of ledger means, “An arrangement of a ledger in which accounts are classified systematically and that classified accounts are recorded in the separate ledger.” Method of classification: With the different view points classification of ledger is possible but a trader can classify a ledger in his how convenient way. Ledger is usually classified as follows :
Generally, trader sub-divide the ledger in the following way:
(A) Ledger for Personal Accounts and
(B) General ledger.
(A) Ledger for Personal Accounts: At the end of specific period to know the receivables and payables amount of the business, credit transactions are written separately. Because of the credit transactions of purchase and sales, it is necessary to have individual accounts respective parties (debtors and creditors). When a separate ledger is kept for such individual accounts, it is known as Ledger of Personal Accounts. Such a ledger is further divided into two types :
1. Creditors ledger: Accounts of creditors are required to be opened because of the credit purchase transactions. Creditors ledger is prepared from the entries of purchase book and purchase return book, which is also known as Purchase ledger. Mostly big traders keep a separate creditors ledger.
2. Debtors ledger: Accounts of debtors are required to be opened because of the credit sales transactions. Debtors ledgers is prepared from the entries of sales book and sales return book, which is also known as Sales ledger. Mostly big traders keep a separate debtors ledger.
Above ledger can further be classified as follows :
(i) Alphabetically: Ledger is classified on the basis of first letter of individual account while preparing ledger, e.g., According to English alphabet, from A to I, J to R and S to Z. Similarly, according to Gujarati alphabet it can be a ledger from
(ii) Areawise: This type of ledger is classified on the basis of residence area or the business area of traders, e.g., Village, City, Taluka, District, State, Country or it can be divided into zones for sales or purchase, e.g., East zone, West zone, etc.
(B) General ledger: When a separate ledger is prepared for the accounts of goods-assets and incomes-expenses, excluding the debtors and creditors accounts, then it is known as General ledger, in which accounts of purchase, sales and goods returns are also opened.
Above classification can also be done as follows :
(1) Debtors ledger,
(2) Creditors ledger and
(3) General ledger.
(10) Explain the process of balancing an account with an illustration.
Answer:
Balance: A trader is required to close the books of accounts in order to know the profit or loss of his business. This is done at the end of a particular period. Thus, it is necessary to find out the balance of every account opened in the books. “Balance means the difference between the totals of debit side and credit side of an account.” In any account, the excess of the total of the credit side over that of the debit side amount or the excess of the total of the debit side over that of the credit side amount is known as the Balance of that account.
Process of balancing: To find out the balance of an account or to close the account following
process is to be followed :
(1) Out of the total of both sides of an account, the side having more total than the other is to be written on both the sides.
(2) The difference of amount in the amount column on a side having less total is to be calculated and recorded and in the particulars column against the difference of amount it is necessary to write words ‘balance carried forward’ which is in short shown as ‘balance c/f’.
(3) Draw one horizontal line above the total amount and draw two parallel horizontal line below the total amount. This means the account is considered and closed.
(4) Debit or Credit balance of an account will be written in the particulars column as ‘balance brought forward’ while opening an account in the next year and it is necessary to write the amount of balance in amount column with ‘balance b / f in particulars column.
Debit balance : If in an account the total of debit side is more than the total of credit side than such an account is said to have a debit balance.
Illustration :
Here, the total of amount on debit side is ₹ 26,000 (20,000 + 6,000) while the total of amount on credit side is ₹ 8,600 (8,000 + 500 + 100). Thus, amount of difference is found to be ₹ 17,400 (₹ 26,000 – ₹ 8,600). Here, the total of the debit side is more than the total of the credit side. Therefore, Cash account has a debit balance of ₹ 17,400.
Credit balance: If in an account the total of credit side is more than the total of debit side then such an account is said to have a credit balance.
Here, the total of amount on credit side is ₹ 63,000 (27,000 + 36,000) while the total of amount on debit side is ₹ 50,000 (10,000 + 40,000). Thus, amount of difference is found to be ₹ 13,000 (₹ 63,000 – ₹ 50,000). Here, the total of credit side is more than the total of the debit side. Therefore, Achaldas’s account has a credit balance of ₹ 13,000.
Squared up account/Zero balance : Sometimes, while balancing the account, the totals of the both sides (the debit and the credit side) are same or equal, in such a case there will be no balance (zero balance) to that account as there is no surplus on either side. Such account is known as Squared up account or Setted account.
Illustration:
Here, the total of amount on debit side is ₹ 20,000 (10,800 + 9,200) and the total of amount on credit side is also ₹ 20,000 (6,000 + 14,000). Thus, amount of difference will be zero (₹ 20,000 -₹ 20,000 = 00). Therefore, there will be no balance to that account. So Niyanta’s account is squared up.
