Ledgers 在簿记上是分类帐的意思,可以和其他词汇搭配,构成许多会计词汇。如
ledger accounts( 分类帐户 ) 、 general ledger( 总分类帐 ) 、 subsidiary ledger( 明细分
类帐 ) 等。例如:
• Ledger accounts are used to record business transactions' effect on an accounting
entity. 分类帐户被用来记录交易对会计主体的影响。
• A ledger account is simply a record of changes (increase and decrease) and
balances in value of a specific accounting item.
分类帐户不过是特定会计项目价值的变动 ( 增加与减少 ) 和结余的记录。
• The general ledger is the book used to list all the accounts established by an
organization. 总分类帐是一本列出一个单位所设立的全部帐户的帐本。
• Further simplification of the general ledger is brought about by the use of
subsidiary ledger. 使用明细分类帐使总分类帐更加简化明了。
