Explanation:

These journal entries record the cash receipt transactions which the company has witnessed as they occur on a daily basis.  The procedure is to first identify the two accounts involved in each transaction.  Since the Cash account is always receiving the values, and is debited, the accounts giving the values are credited.  The general journal records all kinds of business transactions.  It is distinguishable from more specialized journals like the cash receipts journal, used for accumulating cash receipts for a particular period, say a day, before the total is posted to the general ledger while the individual accounts are posted to the affected accounts.
