Accounts in the General Ledger are typically arranged using a chart of accounts, which categorizes them into assets, liabilities, equity, revenues, and expenses. Each account is assigned a unique number for easy identification and organization. The accounts are usually organized in a systematic order, often starting with balance sheet accounts (assets, liabilities, and equity) followed by income statement accounts (revenues and expenses). This arrangement facilitates efficient tracking and reporting of financial transactions.

How is subsidiary ledger different to the general ledger?
A subsidiary ledger is a group of similar accounts whose combined balances equal the balance in a specific general ledger account. The general ledger account that summarizes a subsidiary ledger's account balances is called a control account or master account. For example, an accounts receivable subsidiary ledger (customers' subsidiary ledger) includes a separate account for each customer who makes credit purchases. The combined balance of every account in this subsidiary ledger equals the balance of accounts receivable in the general ledger. Posting a debit or credit to a subsidiary ledger account and also to a general ledger control account does not violate the rule that total debit and credit entries must balance because subsidiary ledger accounts are not part of the general ledger; they are supplemental accounts that provide the detail to support the balance in a control account.
