Double Entry AccountingThe Equality of Debits and Credits


Double-Entry Accounting

Double entry bookkeeping means to record the dual effects of each business transaction.

Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity Assets are on the left (debit) side. Liabilities and Equity are on the right

(credit) side.


One debit One credit

Each transaction is recorded with at least:

Total debits must equal total credits.

The Journal

Where transactions are first recorded Every company has a general journal Contributes to recording process:

Discloses complete transaction in one place Provides a chronological record Helps prevent and locate errors Provides explanation and identifies the source

document


Journalizing

Entering transaction data in the journal Separate journal entry for each

transaction A complete entry consists of

Transaction date Accounts & amounts to be debited and

credited Brief explanation of transaction

Learning Objectives

Preparing a trial balance


The Trial Balance

List of accounts and their balances at a specific time

Proves that debits equal credits after posting

Uncovers errors in journalizing and posting To prepare a trial balance:

1. List accounts and their balances

2. Total the debit and credit columns

3. Ensure the two columns are equal


Trial Balance

List of the ending balances of all the accounts in a ledger

Total debits should equal total credits


Limitations of a Trial Balance

Does not prove: That all transactions have been recorded, or That the ledger is correct

Numerous errors may exist even though the trial balance columns agree Total debits and total credits may be equal,

but may still be posted to the wrong account or in the wrong amount


Locating Errors

If trial balance does not balance, then: Re-calculate account balances Scan trial balance for errors:

If divisible by two, look for entry in wrong column

If divisible by nine, look for transposition errors

Otherwise, scan to see if an account balance has been omitted
