The ledger provides a complete record of financial transactions over the life of the company. The ledger holds account information that is needed to prepare financial statements and includes accounts for assets, liabilities, owners' equity, revenues and expenses.

A ledger records classified and summarized financial information from journals as debits and credits, and shows their current balances.
