Also called as General Ledger, this is a principal book that
contains all the accounts i.e., accounts of Assets liabilities, capital,
revenue and expenses. The entries from the books of original entry
are transferred to this book. Hence it is also called as a book of final
entry. There are a number of accounts in a general ledger. All
similar
transactions are grouped under one account.
