It involves identifying a business transaction and analyzing whether or not that transaction affects the assets, liability, equity, income or expenses of the business. A transaction that has an effect on the accounts is an accountable event, which needs to be recorded in the books of accounts. On the other hand, a transaction that has no effect on the account is a non-accountable event which is not recorded in the books of accounts. The General Journal *the book of original entry *process: journalizing *shows all the effects of a transaction in terms of DR and CR The Ledger *a grouping of accounts *process: posting *used to classify and summarize transactions and to prepare data for basic financial statements Trial Balance (Unadjusted and Adjusted) *listing of all ledger accounts, in order, with their respective debit or credit balances. *Assets, Liabilities, OE, Revenues, Expenses  STEP 2 Journalizing After an accountable event is identified and analyzed, The journal is a This recording process is the second step is to chronological record of the called journalizing. record it in the journal by entity’s transactions. means of journal entry.
