    Journalizing petty cash2
    Hello, here's the problem, I tried to work it out but getting confused.

    The company established a pettty cash fund from can withdrawn from its checking account. The entries must be journalized. Here is an example:

    May 1------Petty cash established at $100.

    May 28-----The petty cash fund has $25 remaining and is replenished. Expenditures from the fund for July were: $40 office supplies, $20 postage, and $15 misc.

    June 30-----The petty cash fund has $35 remaining and is replenished. Expenditure from the fund for June were: $30 office supplies, $25 postage, and $10 misc.

    The question is: Do I Journal May and June on the same ledger or should it be separated (on another ledger)? Also, do I show the petty cash of $100 on both ledgers if it is separated?

    Need emergency answer please!

    I have done a similar one but not sure it should be on separate journals or one.

    My answer
    May 1 Dr Petty Cash $100
    Cr Cash $100


    May 28--dr office supplies---40
    ----------dr postage----------20
    ----------dr misc.-------------15
    Cr cash------------------------------75

    June 30--dr office supplies--30
    -----------dr postage----------25
    -----------dr misc.-------------10
    Cr cash-------------------------------65

    All of this is on one ledger. My other thought is to place May on and June on separate ledgers. Please confirm.
    Thanks J:confused:
