Contra entries to those in this account shall be made to account 174, Miscellaneous Current and Accrued Assets, for exchange gas receivable and to account 242, Miscellaneous Current and Accrued Liabilities, for exchange gas deliverable. Such entries shall be reversed and appropriate contra entries made to this account when gas is received or delivered in satisfaction of the amounts receivable or deliverable. This account is not required for minor transactions.B. If revenue is earned or amounts are payable in consideration of the performance of exchange services, such revenue or expense should be recorded in account 495, Other Gas Revenues, or account 813, Other Gas Supply Expenses, as appropriate. See, however, accounts 489, Revenues from Transportation of Gas of Others, and 858, Transmission and Compression of Gas by Others, for transactions which, in fact, are for transportation of gas rather than exchange of gas.C. Records shall be maintained so that there is readily available for each gas exchange the volume of gas received and delivered whether or not entries of dollar amounts to this account are required.
