Gub-Division of Journal-Cash Book
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
The study of this Chapter would enable students to understand:
Subsidiary Books or Sub-Division of Journal
In Chapter 7 on Journal, we had discussed that transactions are first recorded in the Journal and
thereafter transferred (posted) into Ledger Accounts. Transactions are normaly voluminous,
thus it becomes difficult to record all transactions in one book of primary entry, i.e., Journal
Book. For example, in a business number of transactions relate to receipts and payments of
amount (cash or by cheque), sale of goods and their purchase. It is more convenient to maintain
a separate book for each such category of transactions-one to record cash transactions, one for
purchase of goods and one for sale of goods. The book of this type is called book of original
entry or book of primary entry-it is a special form of Journal, representing a sub-division of
ournal. Special Journals are also called subsidiary bookS. Hence, a subsidiary book is a specialised
Journal or book of original entry or book of primary entry recording specific tramsactions.
he system, by which transactions of a category are first recorded in the book, specially meant
10r that category of transactions, and on the basis of which ledger accounts are thereafter
repared, is known as the Practical System of Accounting. It should be noted that there is no
aeparture from the rules of double entry system.
hese books of original or primary entry are also called subsidiary books since ledger accounts
them the process of ledger posting cannot
prepared on basis of these books and without

Balancing of Single Column Cash Book. Cash Book is balanced like any other account.
The receipts column will always be greater than the payments column at any point ot time.
The difference is written on the credit side as "By Balance c/d". The totals are then entered
in the two columns opposite one another and then on the debit side the balance is written as
To Balance b/d" to show the cash balance in hand in the beginning of next period.
1. When a Cash Book is maintained, Cash Account is not opened in the ledger.
2. Cash Book is balanced just like any other account.
3. It does not record cheque received or given.
4. When an entry is passed in the single column Cash Book, the corresponding entry is
passed in the ledger. For instance, it X Pays 5,000, the receipt (or debit) entry will be
passed in the Cash Book and X's Account will be credited in the ledger
Let us take a few transactions (Without GST) and understand how they are recorded in the
or Simple Cash Book and how it is balanced.
