LET'S THINK!!

Why else do you think we have more than one ledger?
The important reason is to aid analysis by keeping similar items together

Why bother with books of first entry ? Why don’t we just enter transactions straight into the ledger?
Books of original entry contain all the important information relating to a transaction.  Ledgers just contain a summary.  In fact, some of the entries in the ledgers are often just one line entries covering an entire month of transaction.
