Unknown
No comments
It is often said that if you have learnt the basic rules of DEBITS and CREDITS, accounting is no more difficult. I am writing this to make the most confusing topic easy for you.
Remember there are 5 elements of Financial Statements, these are;
Asset : Increase in Asset >>> Debit
Decrease in Asset >>> Credit
If you have purchased a property by paying cash of $100,000, then it means You have in fact made an increase in your asset by corresponding decrease in asset i.e cash.
Entry would be:
Property Dr
Cash Cr
Liabilities: Opposite of Assets
Increase >>>>Cr
Decrease>>>>Dr
If you have taken a loan of $100,000 for paying to supplier. Means you have increased your bank liability for decreasing liability towards supplier
Entry would be:
Supplier Account >>>> Dr
Bank Loan>>>>>>>>> Cr
Capital: Same as Liabilities
Expenses: Same as Assets
Income: Same as Liabilities/ Capital
Conclusion: Just remember two scenarios
1) Assets & Expenses >>>>>>>>>>Same Treatment
2) Liability, Capital and Income >>>Same Treatment
Be confident! you will never make an error in double entry. Best of Luck!

Rich Dad Poor Dad Author Robert's book has changed my perspective of education. I have made my strategy to come out of RAT RACE and have started working on it. To leave a Monthly fixed pay Check hurts initially, but it gives you the financial freedom.
Robert's new book "Why A students work for C Students" is the must read book for those who like to come out of this RAT RACE !
