What to Focus On

  • Business transactions have two-fold effects.
  • Source documents support recording of transactions.
  • All entries are based on vouchers.
  • Accounting Equation: A = L + C.
  • It is also called the Balance Sheet Equation.
  • Derived forms are A - L = C and A - C = L.
  • Debit is the left side and credit is the right side of an account.
  • Every transaction must have equal debits and credits.
  • Assets and expenses follow one rule; liabilities, capital, and revenues follow another.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Every transaction affects only one account.

Debit always means increase and credit always means decrease.

Goods purchased on credit should be debited to Goods A/c.
