Instructions
1. Journalize the transactions for June. Use a purchases journal and a cash payments journal, similar to those illustrated in this chapter, and a two-column general journal. Use debit columns for Field Supplies, Office Supplies, and Other Accounts in the purchases journal. Refer to the following partial chart of accounts:
11 Cash 19 Land
14 Field Supplies 21 Accounts Payable
15 Office Supplies 61 Salary Expense
17 Field Equipment 71 Rent Expense
At the points indicated in the narrative of transactions, post to the following accounts in the accounts payable subsidiary ledger:
Best Office Supply Co.
Hydro Supply Co.
Pure Aqua Equipment Co.
2. Post the individual entries (Other Accounts columns of the purchases journal and the cash payments journal and both columns of the general journal) to the appropriate general ledger accounts.
3. Total each of the columns of the purchases journal and the cash payments journal, and post the appropriate totals to the general ledger. (Because the problem does not include transactions related to cash receipts, the cash account in the ledger will have a credit balance.)
4. Prepare a schedule of the accounts payable creditor balances.
5. Why might Sweetwater consider using a subsidiary ledger for the field equipment?

5. A subsidiary ledger for the field equipment would allow the company to track
each individual piece of equipment with respect to cost, location, useful life,
and other data. Such information would be useful for safeguarding equipment
and determining depreciation.
