Journal
Any transaction or event that cannot be recorded in one of the above is recorded in the journal.
It shows the debit and credit entry; for example:
Dr Expense of depreciation £xxx

For example, on 12 January, the business pays wages of £100. The transaction is recorded as:
DEBIT Expense of wages £100
CREDIT Asset of cash £100
Cash received Cash paid
