Key Concepts

Double-entry Accounting

Double-entry accounting is a fundamental system in accounting where every financial transaction is recorded in at least two accounts: one as a debit and the other as a credit. This method ensures that the accounting equation (Assets = Liabilities + Equity) remains balanced after every transaction, providing checks and balances in the recording process.

Debit and Credit Entries

Debit and credit entries are the two sides of every accounting transaction. Debits typically increase asset and expense accounts while decreasing liability, revenue, and equity accounts; credits do the opposite. The correct use of debits and credits is essential for accurate financial reporting and maintaining the balance of the accounting equation.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable is an asset account that represents amounts owed to a business by its customers for credit sales. This account commonly requires both debit and credit entries: a debit generally records the initial sale on account, while a credit entry is used to record payments received from customers, reflecting the reduction in the balance due.
