45 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education Think of the account, journal, ledger (T-account), and chart as matching tools. Businesses are just matching the business transaction to the account description that best captures the specific event that occurred. The accounting equation must always balance after each transaction is recorded. To achieve this balance, we record transactions using a double entry accounting system. In that system, debits are on the left and credits are on the right. Debits always equal credits. 45

46 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education A transaction occurs and is recorded on a source document. Then, we identify the account names affected by the transaction and determine whether the accounts increased or decreased using the rules of debit and credit for the six main account types. Next, we record the transaction in the journal, listing the debits first. We then post all transactions to the ledger (T-account). 46

47 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education Once the ledger (T-account) balances are calculated, the ending balance for each account is transferred to the trial balance. Recall that the trial balance is a listing of all accounts and their balances on a specific date. Total debits must always equal total credits on the trial balance. If they do not, then review the correcting trial balance errors section on Page 81 of the textbook. 47
