Trade receivables: opening balance (1 January) |
33 000 |

Credit sales |
131 200 |
|
Cash receipts journal: Trade receivables column total (31 January) |
64 600 |
|
Sales returns journal: Trade receivables column (31 January) |
6 200 |
On month end, the auditors completed a debtors reconciliation and found the following:
- On 10 January, Mr Zack returned goods sold to him on credit to the amount of R550. This transaction was incorrectly recorded in the Purchases returns journal instead of the Sales returns journal.
- The trade receivables column in the cash receipts journal were undercast by R400.
- On 18 January, goods sold on credit to the amount of 5 300 was recorded in the sales journal as R3 500. No journal entry has been made to correct this error.
Required:
Complete the trade receivables account in the general ledger of Zacks Hardware for the month ending 31 January 2023.
Instructions:
- Use a full stop to indicate any decimals (eg: 1000.01)
- Round off to the second decimal after the full stop (eg: 50.56)
- If no amount should be recorded in any of the numeric spaces, please indicate it by filling in a zero (“0”)
