Each item must be entered twice in the Ledger. Hence the name double entry. The Journal provides for this by a double column for dollars and cents, one representing the Dr. and the other Cr. entry in the Ledger. The folio numbers of the Ledger are entered at the left. The first date is at top of the page and each succeeding date follows in its place in centre of page. Each entry in Journal is followed by a broken ruled line. The vertical ruled line serves to divide the Dr. from Cr. items. Where several items are charged to one account the sum total only is placed against said item as in first entry. Footings in lead pencil should be made of each dollars' and cents' column of Journal page to text accuracy, as these totals must agree.
