How is Accounting like being in Purgatory? | Jim Erenzo
https://jimerenzo.wordpress.com/2011/05/08/how-is-accounting-like-being-in-purgatory
How is Accounting like being in Purgatory? May 8, 2011. I have twin 10 year old girls. One of them struggles at times with Math and English. While discussing her grades as their school year starts to wrap up, she shared her theological reasoning for certain subjects. As she quieted down during our discussion, she quietly said with a sense of acceptance, Dad, when people have to go to purgatory, I bet they have to do Math and English. Is the condition or process of purification or temporary punishment.

https://jimerenzo.wordpress.com/2012/05/31/due-to-due-from-wait-whose-due-what
Due To, Due From, Wait, Whose Due What? May 31, 2012. Due To, Due From accounts can be somewhat confusing. Let’s see if we can simplify how they work and their significance. But first, a crash course in Fund Accounting. Let’s say your General Fund (Fund #01) pays a bill for $100 on behalf of an individual Grant Fund ABC (Fund #02). That means, Fund 02 would owe Fund 01 $100. Thus, Fund 02 would have a Due To General Fund. For $100 and Fund 01 would have a Due From Grant Fund ABC. Fund 01 Credit Cash $100.
