Cevap

Direct payment of monthly office utility bill by standing order matches 'Entered on the credit side of the Bank column'; Cash received from cash sales deposited directly into the bank account matches 'Entered on the debit side of the Bank column'; Capital contribution of cash brought into the business till matches 'Entered on the debit side of the Cash column'; Purchase of office machinery on credit terms matches 'Omitted from the Cash Book and recorded in the General Journal'.
Each transaction is matched based on the double-entry rule for cash books. Money leaving the bank (standing order) is credited to the Bank column. Money entering the bank directly (sales banked immediately) is debited to the Bank column. Money entering the cash till (capital introduced) is debited to the Cash column. Non-cash transactions (credit purchases) are excluded from cash books altogether.
