Accounting Features
Accounting has four main features: recording, classifying, summarising, and interpreting. Accounting is the science of keeping track of transactions. Only business-related transactions involving money are kept track of. Every transaction is meticulously logged. This is done with both journal and subsidiary books. The primary element of accounting is the classification of all company transactions. Accounting organizes all related accounting entries into a single location. All receipts and payments, for example, will be recorded in the cash book. As a result, all transactions are grouped under a single heading. This approach is also known as transaction classification. Opening accounts in books completes the process. Summarizing is the technique of presenting business data concisely. After that, it can be used by anyone interested. This section discusses financial statements. The first is the trading and profit and loss account, while the second is the balance sheet. We can determine whether the profitability situation is excellent or bad by interpreting.
