Are there intra-city transactions?  If not, the simple solution is to 
have one set of books per store.  However, that does make it hard to 
roll up to a grand total for the entire business.

The next approach would be to have a high-level account for each 
location within ASSETS, LIABILITIES, EQUITY, INCOME, and EXPENSES. That 
way you could generate a report for each location and then another one 
for all locations.
