Man, I’ve been using SAP for about 2 yearsin TAX, and did not understand the ledgers. Now that I am in fixed assets, it got even harder. This video helped me understand everything now and I can calm down. Thank you so much

Plz don't stop posting videos , u can help me a lot in my acca journey as i am a beginner❤ Also in this video , i think the example of putting info of cash and other accounts to general ledger was somewhat missing or not highlighted ❤
I will try my best to keep posting, it's been on and off a bit in the past few months due to other commitments. Thanks for the feedback on the video. Have you checked out the other videos in the Accounting 101 playlist: ruclips.net/video/b93KBmcXanI/видео.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
I found out that many tribes in the old west were sold used ledgers books with actual data written in them as a trade item. I had no idea what a ledger book was, so I looked it up and found this video.
You want to record transactions at a meaningful level of detail. For the income statement, you need one or more revenue accounts, and many different expense accounts. Same story for the balance sheet: various GL accounts for different types of assets, liabilities and equity. Have a look at the related video on debits and credits for some examples: ruclips.net/video/b93KBmcXanI/видео.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
Great video! really helps in understanding the concepts with clear picture. Is it possible for you to make video on creating excel sheet models for Sub Ledgers and General Ledger - How they work internally when transactions are posted etc. Thanks in advance!
Thank you, Navendu! Happy to hear the video was helpful. Regarding Excel sheet models for sub and general ledger: that's not really my area of expertise, so I cannot help with that.
Thank you! Lovely to hear that. Here's the link to my video on accruals ruclips.net/video/lBvnSgIGVnU/видео.html and my video on debits and credits explained ruclips.net/video/n-lCd3TZA8M/видео.html
Hello Zara! I think "books of original entry" are the same as what I call "subledgers" in this video. Here's a description I found in a search: "Books of original entry refers to the accounting journals in which business transactions are initially recorded. The information in these books is then summarized and posted into a general ledger, from which financial statements are produced."

Hello Will! My apologies if that part went too fast. Payroll is the system where you keep track of employee contracts, payslips, etc. The cash ledger is where you keep track of the movements in your bank account(s) and/or the physical cash in the till. Each of these (and other) subledgers serves a specific purpose. The general ledger pulls everything together so that you can look at your overall financials. Before you put a thumbs down to a video, feel free to ask clarifying questions!

A Very useful video indeed! I am attending Penn Foster College in their Accounting program and this explains it thoroughly, thanks 🙏

This was so clear! I wish I was able to watch this, 10-15 years ago!

Thanks for sharing that! I was not yet aware of that historical fact.
@@TheFinanceStoryteller yeah they would draw pictures of the many wars they fought in them as a form of record keeping.
Thank you soo much I'm writing about this tom... I feel relieved 😌
You're so welcome, Naledi!

You're very welcome, Heather! 😊 Thank you for watching and commenting.
Thanks a ton ! I understood things clearly now.
Wonderful to hear that, Janet! :-) Happy to help.
Thanks a lot for the video! I have one question: Why a company would have several G/L Accounts?

Thanks bro!
@@TheFinanceStoryteller thank you
Does our general ledger consist of transactions recorded that have occurred and been PAID for or only transactions that have occurred?
Occurred for sure, can be paid or not yet paid.
Thank you for making it easy :)

Can i use this for may reporting in accounting general ledger grade 12
Hello! Yes, I would guess so, as long as you mention/quote the source.
Great one, once again!!!
Can you make a video on complicated "rectification of errors."
Thank you for the suggestion, Jagadeesh! That is a topic that seems to get a lot of search traffic. Let me investigate what I can say about it.
Are nominal ledger and general ledger same thing?
Hello Salman! I am not familiar with the term "nominal ledger", so can't help you there....

RUclipsr is a German?
Very close, Logan! I am Dutch actually. 😊
My German friends often tease me that Dutch sounds like German, but with somebody having a throat disease. 😂
You jumped to HR, PATROLL, CASH LEDGERS what is that? This video confused me further down thumbs down to this video
Hello Will! My apologies if that part went too fast. Payroll is the system where you keep track of employee contracts, payslips, etc. The cash ledger is where you keep track of the movements in your bank account(s) and/or the physical cash in the till. Each of these (and other) subledgers serves a specific purpose. The general ledger pulls everything together so that you can look at your overall financials.
Before you put a thumbs down to a video, feel free to ask clarifying questions!
