I have a question regarding petty cash. If I want to show cash going into petty cash from the business owner, I was going to use Bank Receipts to record the funds. If I do this, which general ledger do I use to record this? I was going to use the drawings nominal code 3050 for this, but I am not sure even if Bank Receipts is the correct way to do this?
That would work but I personally prefer to set up an account called 'capital introduced' rather than having a credit balance going into drawings, though many do this. Using the bank receipt is just like posting a journal, dr bank, cr capital introduced...
