Anytime there is uncertainty about where a financial transaction is to be recorded, it gets recorded in what’s called a “suspense account”, pending when the appropriate destination of the recording is determined. By year-end, huge unexplained balances could remain in the suspense accounts demanding for explanations. There are many unethical uses that suspense accounts could be put to in order to distort the true position of the accounts.
