Journal Corrections and VAT
Permalink Closed


Hi..this is the first time i have used this and i would appreciate any help with my studies....

I understand the correction of journals where i have to put the account right but if there is VAT is this a seperate entry and do i enter this alongside a suspense a/c?

for example.....purchase for 100 + vat for c jones has been credited to the sales ledger a/c pf b jones, the vat was also entered incorrectly, the purchase a/c was correct

...what are my entries please?

thanks in advance

Hi Mellie,

I'm happy to help, but it may be easier to have a full example question for us to answer as a worked example can be used for reference for yourself and others in the future.

Thanks,

Ben

In reality you would have 1 suspense journal entry and 2 other entries for the slc and vat... But it exams they like you to do a suspense entry for each part of the correcting entry.

Thanks Nikkij so the VAT a/c would show #20 and the suspense a/c would show #20?
