W23 Day 113 of Nana's Internship

Week 23 Day 113 (10 September 2025)

Activity

- Checked the cash sales provided by the person in charge, ensuring they were correctly separated between the director’s own sales and the company’s sales.

- Made amendments on previous account works by keying in payroll transactions in Excel, including salary, EPF, SOCSO, EIS, bonus, and staff allowances.

Key Learning

- I learned how important it is to properly separate personal and company sales to avoid mixing up financial records.

- I learned that payroll is not just about salary but also includes many components such as EPF, SOCSO, EIS, and bonuses, which all need careful recording.

- I learned that correcting old records can take a lot of time, and it showed me why accuracy from the beginning is very important.

Reflection

Today was another reminder of how much attention to detail is needed in accounting. While checking the cash sales, I realized how easy it is for things to get mixed up if personal and company transactions are not clearly separated. It made me more aware of the need to always double-check the sources of each transaction. Working on payroll transactions was quite detailed since I had to include not only salaries but also EPF, SOCSO, EIS, bonuses, and allowances. At first, it felt a bit overwhelming to key in all these items carefully, but it also gave me a better understanding of how payroll is structured and why each component is important. Making amendments on previous accounts also reminded me that accuracy at the first stage can save a lot of time later. Overall, it was a day full of corrections and careful checking, but I could see how each step contributes to keeping the accounts reliable and correct.
