Task 1One line for each invoice3 questions

The sales day book is a list of the invoices sent to credit customers, in the order they were raised. It is a book of prime entry: the first place a sale is written down.

Each invoice gets one line, with three money columns: net, VAT and gross.

On 3 July Larkfield Ceramics sends invoice 3201 to Juniper Gifts. Its net total is £330.

Cash sales are not entered here. Nor are credit notes, which have a day book of their own.
