10. GENERAL LEDGER:
10.1. The general ledger provides a complete set of accounting records needed for the recognition of any accounting period. OLOG’s accounting starts from 1st of January and ends on 31st December each year.
10.2. The general ledger provides the important information necessary for the preparation of all basic reports required by the PFC. OLOG’s general ledger provides for the preparation of balance sheet reports, income and expenditure reports and the receipts and payments reports for all accounting periods under review. The general ledger is therefore a very important set of financial information.
10.3. MYOB is the accounting software system adopted by OLOG to process all financial reports. Other financial supplements and/or analysis are created on MS-Excel software which links well with MYOB.
10.4. The PFC is the ultimate authority to evaluate and recommend changes or upgrades to the Parish Priest for consideration and approval.
10.5. The PFC has the responsibility of carefully setting up a chart of accounts in order to provide meaningful management information for the purpose of analyzing financial data both for internal and external reporting purposes. As all reports require different presentation of information, the Chart of Accounts is used to collect the necessary data for processing such reports.
10.6. It is the responsibility of the PFC to post all general ledger transactions into MYOB accounting system and produce monthly reports of Balance Sheet, Income & Expenditure and Receipts & Payments in addition to accounting reports that are required for submission to the Archdiocesan Office and for posting on the Parish notice board. The following is a Chart of Accounts drawn up and currently used by the PFC.
