    Hi.
    I find suspense account q's fine, but i mess up the actual suspense account that you have to prepare every time. I get the correct figures and difference, but I just don't know what to NAME each entry (e.g. purchases, creditors, etc).
    Can you tell me how you know what NAME to enter in the suspense account for each entry, and if you lose any marks for entering the wrong NAME.
    Thanks!

    ^Your great help.

    Our teacher just told us use the name of the biggest adjustment. (Creditor - 10,000 and Discount - 500) so you would call the the figure in the suspense acc Creditors and also you could number the suspense name to whatever part of the Q your doing aswell. At a guess they dont get marks, only the figures do.

    ^ Going by the exam papers, there a banker for this year though?
    there so repetitive, you could do 2/3 questions and you'd nearly cover all the adjustments!
