    The extension to a bank loan will not appear in the general journal because it is not a transaction. An extension would be changing the length of time to repay the bank loan, which could change the amount of the payments. So you would only record the payments made or due, not the terms of the loan in the general journal.

    I think what you might be missing is debit bank 3080 and credit loans 3080

    I am unsure because I'm unsure what you mean by extension of a Bank Loan, if you mean a loan was increased, then you need this extra journal, if you mean that there is a bank overdraft arrangement which allowed the bank balance to have a greater credit balance then you don't

    As to the other journals they are okay.
