Document Summary

A receivable is recorded when: service is provided on account, or at point of sale of merchandise on account. Service company = receivable is recorded when a service is provided on account. Merchandising company = receivable is recorded at the point of sale of merchandise on account. Revenue recognized when the performance or sales effort is substantially complete, normally occurs when service is performed or goods are delivered at point of sale. Merchandising entries in a perpetual inventory system include both an entry to record the sale at the sales price and an entry to record the cost of the goods sold. Subsidiary ledger is a group of accounts that share a common characteristic (i. e. they are all receivable accounts) The subsidiary ledger for accounts receivable provides the details that support the total balance for accounts receivable in the general ledger: the single accounts receivable in the general ledger is the control account.
