Understand Adjustment Journal

An adjustment journal is a journal used to adjust the value in a trial balance. While the balance sheet itself is an accumulation in the accounting period. What is accumulated is the initial balance sheet and the transactions that occur.

Another definition states, adjusting entries are journals created in the process of recording changes in balances in an account so that they reflect the actual amount.

There are several functions. First, to determine the general ledger account balance at the end of the period. Next, to calculate income and expenses during the period.

In it, it has also known journal entries. What is meant by a journal entry is a journal created as a material for change in this journal. Or as a process of recording changes in balance. It is originating from several accounts so that it reflects the actual amount of stability.

Another function is to complete accounting records. You are especially accounting records or economic activities of the company. But they are not recorded in the transaction journal — for example, depreciation journal.

Depreciation journals are not recorded in transaction journals. Because it does not include the results of the transaction, and adjusting entry can also be referred to as a company journal in allocating assets to costs.

In addition to function, there is also the purpose of making it. Short adjusting entries are intended to ensure the truth of the data. Or in more detail, it aims to show the reality of each estimate — accurately, the estimated debt and assets at the end of the period.

The next goal is to show the nominal for each estimate. What estimate is meant? Estimated end of period revenue and expenses. That will show the amount of income and fees that must be recognized.
