The Most Convenient And Fastest Way Of Posting Journal Entries To The Ledger
The Correct Answer Of Short Question Is T-Account
The most convenient and fastest way of transferring Journal Entries to the Ledger is by using T-Account as it is easy to record accounts (Assets, Liabilities, Equity, Revenues and Expenses) on t-account having a title of a particular account and having a left side (or debit side) and a right side (credit
side).
For example, if salary t account is prepared, then it is shown below:
Salary T Account
For The Month Of July, 2023
Date Particulars Amount Date Particulars Amount
July 2023 $ July 2023 Particulars $
5th July Cash a./c 3000
31st July Balance c/d 3000
The entry recorded on 5th July, 2023, is transferred from journal. The balance carried down (Balance c/d) shows the balance which is transferred to Income Statement
All the accounts are finally transferred to concerned ledger's account at the end of the accounting period. This process of transferring accounts from journal to ledger is called posting.
