Additional information:

The following errors and omissions were discovered after the above were drawn up:

1. X Saturn was declared insolvent and the liquidators paid 50% of the balance outstanding at 30 April 2020. This amount was deposited directly into the business bank account. The balance must be written off as irrecoverable. All the necessary entries to record the amount received from the liquidators and the amount written-off must still be recorded.
2. An amount of R22 680 was received from C Mars and recorded correctly in the Cash Receipts Journal, but was not posted to his personal account in the Debtors ledger.
3. A credit note number CR678 for R2 700 was issued to B Moon for the return of damaged goods. This was recorded correctly in the Sales Return Journal but erroneously posted to

L Suns account in the debtors ledger.

4. D Venuss account is overdue and must be charged interest of R1 096.
5. A credit sale of goods to L Sun for R3 240 has not yet been recorded.
6. The sales return journal is undercast by R540.
