A ledger is the principal book or computer file for recording and totaling economic transactions measured in terms of a monetary unit of account by account type, with debits and credits in separate columns and a beginning monetary balance and ending monetary balance for each account.
The ledger is a permanent summary of all amounts entered in supporting journals which list individual transactions by date. Every transaction flows from a journal to one or more ledgers. A company's financial statements are generated from summary totals in the ledgers.
Ledgers include:
For every debit recorded in a ledger, there must be a corresponding credit so that the debits equal the credits in the grand totals.
Heathcliff Andrew Ledger (4 April 1979 – 22 January 2008) was an Australian actor and director. After performing roles in Australian television and film during the 1990s, Ledger left for the United States in 1998 to develop his film career. His work comprised nineteen films, including 10 Things I Hate About You (1999), The Patriot (2000), A Knight's Tale (2001), Monster's Ball (2001), Ned Kelly (2003), The Brothers Grimm (2005), Lords of Dogtown (2005), Brokeback Mountain (2005), Casanova (2005), Candy (2006), I'm Not There (2007), The Dark Knight (2008) and The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (2009). He also produced and directed music videos and aspired to be a film director.
For his portrayal of Ennis Del Mar in Brokeback Mountain, Ledger won the New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Actor and Best International Actor from the Australian Film Institute, and was nominated for the BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role and for the Academy Award for Best Actor. Posthumously he shared the 2007 Independent Spirit Robert Altman Award with the rest of the ensemble cast, the director, and the casting director for the film I'm Not There, which was inspired by the life and songs of American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan. In the film, Ledger portrayed a fictional actor named Robbie Clark, one of six characters embodying aspects of Dylan's life and persona.
I'm feeling a little homesick blues
And it's something that I cannot explain without blowing the fuse
I'm feeling a little tired and low
And it's something that I cannot explain since a long time ago
Don't tell me it's not real
And don't go mocking the way I feel
It's so clear and so true
But I'm leaving it up to you
I wrote it in the skies
Until this day I'll wear your disguise
It's so clear and so pure
I think I need you but I can't be sure
I can't be sure
I'm leaving on the first flight home
'Cause it's something that I cannot explain from the end of the phone
Don't tell me it's not real
And don't go mocking the way I feel
It's so clear and so true
But I'm leaving it up to you
I wrote it in the skies
Until this day I'll wear your disguise
It's so clear and so pure
I think I need you but I can't be sure
A million reasons
There are fountain of ways
A hundred letters in seven days
Minutes and seconds
And I'll be away
Don't tell me it's not real
And don't go mocking the way I feel
I've fastened myself to you
I'm sticking to you like glue
I wrote it in the book
Why don't you give me a second look
But I'm still feel insecure
I think I need you but I can't be sure
I can't be sure
I can't be sure
