Hi Beso and Others. In spite of what has been said, I am still struggling with the Petty Cash! I follow that the key is to have a petty cash account in to which is entered an amount drawn from the bank account and at this point such an amount is "not an Expense". I assume that the "expense" bit comes when I pay the builder and the garage and when I enter such in expenditure of the accounts. But this is were I lose the plot. The bank account will show a debit of a £100 for the petty cash account. The Expenditure account will also show expenditure of £100 also but how are the two related because it looks as if I have spent £200. HELP
