Business transactions are recorded for Premier Ovens Pty Ltd on a daily basis in one of these five journals in the accounts.
Additionally, the company maintains a general ledger to record postings from the journals. Subsidiary Ledgers are used to record the separate details of Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable.

Apart from these transactions, totals of the special journals are taken at the end of the month and then posted to the appropriate accounts.
The company uses a periodic inventory system.
GST has been excluded.
