                                   Classification of transactions is being done only on the basis of preparing the ledger accounts.
                                   The accounts are classified on the basis of nature and characteristics.



                                     Did u know?  How are the account transactions classified?
                                     The accounts are classified through the preparation of ledger.
                                   Ledger is nothing but preliminary book of accounting transactions at which, each account is
                                   separately maintained through  the allotment of various pages for exclusive recording. The
                                   exclusive allotment of pages is made for every account to finalize their balances. Finally, ledger
                                   can be understood that is a document of grouping the transactions under one heading.
                                   It is a fundamental book of accounts which mainly highlights the status of the accounts.


                                          Example: Plant & Machineries’ Ledger A/c should reveal the transactions of the sale and
                                   purchase of the plant & machinery.
