What to Focus On

  • Assets = Liabilities + Capital
  • A = L + C
  • L = A - C

  • It helps in the analysis of accounting transactions
  • It supports accuracy in accounting records
  • It shows the relationship among assets, liabilities, and capital

  • Every transaction affects assets, liabilities, or capital
  • A transaction may change more than one item
  • The equation remains balanced after each transaction

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Assets always increase on the debit side and liabilities also increase on the debit side.

Capital behaves like an asset account, so increases in capital are debited.

All income or profit accounts are treated like expenses and debited when they increase.
