Explanation:
The accounting equation is the foundation for the double enter system of account balancing. In this system, the amount of debits are entered on one side as the corresponding credit is entered on the other side. Then the total credits are added and compared to the sum of the debit. When the credit equals the debit, the accounts balance. The accounting equation can be expressed as;
A=L+E
where;
A=assets
L=liabilities
E=owner's equity
Lets enter the transaction as shown;
Account type Asset Liability
