  10. JOURNAL ENTRIES AND LEDGERS What is a Journal Entry??? What is a Ledger The general ledger is the main accounting record of a business which uses double-entry bookkeeping. It will usually include accounts for such items as current assets, fixed assets, liabilities, revenue and expense items, gains and losses. Each General Ledger is divided into debits and credits sections. The left hand side lists debit transactions and the right hand side lists credit transactions. This gives a 'T' shape to each individual general ledger account. • A journal entry, in accounting, is a logging of transactions into accounting journal items. • The journal entry can consist of several items, each of which is either a debit or a credit. • The total of the debits must equal the total of the credits or the journal entry is said to be "unbalanced".
