Source Documents are the forms, invoices, receipts, legal papers, or other documents which underlie a business transaction. These are the so-called evidential matter. Existence of evidential matter supports and corroborates the objectivity of accounting records.
Below are examples of source documents which underlie an economic event:
- Sales Invoices
- Official Receipts
- Check
- Check Voucher
- Petty Cash Voucher
- Promissory Note
- Debit Memorandum
- Credit Memorandum
- Bank Deposit Slip
- Payroll Records
- Statement of Account or Billing
