The journal entry method records transactions directly in the accounting books using standard debit and credit entries, reflecting the immediate impact on the financial statements. In contrast, the memorandum method involves maintaining a separate record or memorandum for share capital transactions, which may not be immediately recorded in the main accounting system. The memorandum method is often used for informational purposes or for tracking unissued shares, while the journal entry method provides a more formal and immediate accounting treatment. Ultimately, the choice between the two methods depends on the company's accounting policies and the level of detail required.
