SUBSIDIARY BOOKS
When number of transactions is numerous, it is practically
impossible to record all the transactions through one journal because of its
limitations. To overcome the shortcomings of the use of the journal entry, the journal is sub divided into special
journals.
The journal is subdivided in such a way, that a separate book is
used for each category of transactions, which are repetitive in nature and are
sufficiently large in number.
Special journal, refer to the journals meant for specific
transactions of similar nature. Special
journals are also known as subsidiary books or day-book.
In any large business organization, the following special journal
(or subsidiary books) are generally used:
