what is subsidiary book?

Answer Posted / trilochan mohapatra

when a transaction is made.that should be first recorded in
journal....in earlier days all the transaction are recorded
in one book,but now separate books are maintained to record
a particular kind of trasaction...for example:all saless
transaction(cr. sales ) are to be recorded in
salesbook..similarly all cash received and paid, are to be
recorded in cashbook....these special books are nothing,are
called subsidiary books

there are mainly 8 subsidiary books
1)purchase book(only credit purchases are to be recorded)
2)sales book (only credit sales are recorded)
{cash puchases and cash sales are to be recorded in
cashbook ..not in purchasebook and salesbook
respectively)
3)purchase return book
4)sales return book
5)bills receivable book
6)bills payable book
7)cashbook
