 We continue recording the transactions
stated until all have been included in
the Cashbook.
 Please remember that only transactions
that relate to cash, bank and discounts
are recorded in the 3 column cash book.
Points to note
 June 18 transaction is “contra entry” it
affects both sides of the cash book.

 There is no harmony or relationship between


discount allowed and discount received,
hence they do not have a balance c/d.

 The cash and bank columns have to be


balanced off.
