4. The computerized system is more efficient. Each sales transaction is entered
into an electronic invoice form. The postings to the accounts receivable subsidiary
and fees earned ledgers are automatic. Also, all sums and totals in the subsidiary
ledgers are calculated automatically. There are no separate postings to an
accounts receivable control account because there is no need to verify the
accuracy of account totals. There is no math or posting error. The computerized
system also provides management with current customer account balance
information because the postings are automatic.
