Cevap
Nominal Accounts Omission pairs with the major drawback of excluding revenue and expense accounts; Cash Book and Personal Ledgers pairs with the primary feature of maintaining only cash and debtor/creditor records; Trial Balance Extraction Failure pairs with the inability to verify arithmetical accuracy due to non-dual entries; and Statement of Affairs pairs with the substitutive financial statement used to compute capital and profit.
In a single entry system, bookkeepers maintain unsystematic records strictly centered around cash transactions and personal debtor/creditor accounts. Nominal accounts (income and expenses) are omitted, which causes the major limitation of being unable to extract a trial balance to verify arithmetical accuracy. As a result, businesses rely on a Statement of Affairs to compute capital and ascertain net profit based on changes in net assets.
