21. Double-Entry Book-Keeping Aims: – To understand the dual aspect of book-keeping – To be able to carry out basic double entry transactions from given information

22. Getting started: For every financial transaction there is a dual aspect – so you would do two book- keeping entries in two different ledger accounts Accounts are where the business will record all associated transactions e.g. wages, rent paid, sales (but by customer names), purchases (but by supplier/creditor name) Lay out of an account shown on the top half of page 7 of text book – please copy this out In reality wages take up pages in hand-written book-keeping systems, but we will put several on a one page For our exercises we will use a simpler format Double-Entry Book-Keeping

23. Debits & Credits Accounts are often called T accounts, they have two sides – debit & credit Principle of double entry is that for every transaction one account is debited and the other account is credited Debit entries are made on left hand side of the appropriate account & credit are made on the right hand side The general rules are: – If account gains value, or is recording an asset or expense – DEBIT SIDE – If account gives value, or is recording a liability or an income item – CREDIT SIDE
