Answer / hashim bim ali
unless the difference in the trial balance quickly located
it is usual to put all the difference to a suspense account
in order at least to make the trial balance look balanced.
if the debit side of the trial balance is short, the
suspense account will be debited by saying"to difference in
the trial balance, and similaryly credit side will be
credited if credit side is short.

Answer / nikhil manohar t
A suspense account is an account in the general ledger in
which amounts are temporarily recorded. The suspense account
is used because the proper account could not be determined
at the time that the transaction was recorded. When the
proper account is determined, the amount will be moved from
the suspense account to the proper account.

Answer / sajili sahai
In accountancy, a suspense account is an account used temporarily to carry doubtful receipts and disbursements or discrepancies pending their analysis and permanent classification.
It can be a repository for monetary transactions (cash receipts, cash disbursements & journal entries) entered with invalid account numbers. The account specified may not exist, or it may be deleted/frozen. If one of these conditions exist, the transaction should be directed to a suspense account.
