Contra Transaction

Sometimes it may happen that debtors ledger shows a credit balance and creditor ledger shows a debit balance i.e., the adverse balance of debtors ledger and creditors ledger. Usually, credit, balance in debtor‟s ledger may happen on account of advance taken from creditors or allowances given to customers for different products after closing the accounts. Similarly, debit balance in creditors ledger may appear on account of excess payment made or goods returned to creditors after closing the accounts etc. Thus, these contra transactions are to be adjusted. But, student must remember that credit balance in one ledger must not be set off against debit balance of another ledger. These should be treated separately.
