Double-Entry AccountingDouble-Entry AccountingDouble-Entry AccountingDouble-Entry Accounting
“ Double-entry accounting is based on a simple
concept: each party in a business transaction
will receive something and give something in
return. In bookkeeping terms, what is received
is a debit and what is given is a credit. The T
account is a representation of a scale or
balance.”
