Reflection


Today, I learned how to create and key in the Property, Plant and Equipment Schedule to calculate depreciation for a client’s business, which helped me understand how fixed assets are handled in accounting. I also printed and filed important documents related to the business owner, which showed me the importance of organized record-keeping. I continued working on Mr. Lim’s task of entering handwritten transactions, and I was able to categorize them into the right accounts after some careful adjustment. Lastly, I began keying in January's cash sales for the new client as assigned by Ms. Chan yesterday. Although I’m still gaining confidence in this task, I’m starting to feel more familiar with the process.
