1 The General Ledger 4 Post to the ledger The 4 th step of the accounting cycle is to post to the ledger. The General Ledger is a book containing a separate page for each business account. The General Ledger serves as a permanent record of financial transactions for the business. Posting to the ledger is the process of transferring information from the General Journal to the individual General Ledger accounts. This is pretty easy. All I really have to do is copy the information that I already have in my general journal.

2 The Ledger Account Form Let s take a look at a sample General Ledger. To open a account with a zero balance 1) Write the name of the account on the top of the ledger form. 2) Write the account number on the ledger form. ACCOUNT OCT 1 Cash in Bank Balance 101 ACCOUNT NO. a 25,000 To open a account with a balance 3) Enter the date in the date column. 4) Write the word Balance in the description column. 5) Place a check mark in the post reference column to show that the amount is not being posted from the General Journal. 6) Enter the balance in the appropriate column.
