To solve this, we will prepare the Cash Payment Journal by recording only the transactions that involve cash outflows (payments). The visible journal heading indicates a Cash Payment Journal, which records money paid out by the business.

  1. Identify cash payment transactions.

    We will select the transactions where the business pays money:

    • Transaction 3: Purchase of laundry machines (R23 000).
    • Unnumbered transaction (between 3 and 6): Payment for advert to Krugersdorp News (R1 200). We will assume this occurred on Day 4.
    • Transaction 15: Purchase of washing liquid and softener (R6 200).
    • Transaction 21: Payment for new irons and washing machine repair (R800).
  2. Record the transactions in the Cash Payment Journal.

    The journal includes columns for the document number (Doc), day, name of the payee, the amount paid from the bank (credit), and the accounts debited (Equipment or Sundry Accounts).

    The total cash payments recorded in the journal are R31 200.
