For the trading loss profit account can you put dues and expenses in like this (out teacher taught us this way): Wages(100-20) 80 or do you only get marks for it this way: wages 100 wages due 20 80

My business teacher always said the first column was for calculations, so i would do it like i did below, as far as i know there are marks rewarded for the calculations, even if there isn't there's no harm in showing them in case you make an error. I don't know if you get marks the way you're writing it, you might but i'm positive you get marks my way!

Wages |100|
Wages due | 20 | | 120 |

Good Luck and make sure you know how the adjustments are entered into the balance sheet!
