The Basic Accounting Rules Assets - Liabilities = Equity • Furthermore, you can increase your equity through income, and decrease equity through expenses. This makes sense of course, when you receive a paycheck you become "richer" and when you pay for dinner you become "poorer". This is expressed mathematically in what is known as the Accounting Equation: Assets - Liabilities = Equity + (Income - Expenses) • This equation must always be balanced, a condition that can only be satisfied if you enter values to multiple accounts. For example: if you receive money in the form of income you must see an equal increase in your assets. As another example, you could have an increase in assets if you have a parallel increase in liabilities.

Double Entry Accounting • The basic accounting equation is the very heart of a double entry accounting system. For every change in value of one account in the Accounting Equation, there must be a balancing change in another. This concept is known as the Principle of Balance. • Double entry accounting serves two purposes. The first is to create an accounting trail, money always has to come from somewhere and go to somewhere. Additionally, double entry accounting historically served to double check the math of an accountant. Because the numbers are entered into multiple accounts simultaneously, there are multiple places to check to make sure the totals match. 7/31/2009

Double Entry Accounting (cont.) • Accountants use the terms debit and credit to describe whether money is being transferred to or from an account. Money is recorded in the debit column, which is always the left column, when it is being transferred to an account. Money is recorded in the credit column, which is always the right column, when it is being transferred from an account. Money always flows from the right column of one account to the left column of another account. • The main rule of accounting is this: For every transaction, total debits must equal total credits. This is just another way of repeating the double entry rule, that for each transaction, the amount of money transferred from accounts must equal the amount transferred to other accounts 7/31/2009

Finalization of Accounts • At the close of every financial year, accounting books have to be “Finalized” as per law • At this juncture “Profit and Loss Account” and “Balance Sheets” are prepared. • All the expenses incurred throughout the year in the business are noted down cumulatively in the P&L Account • The Balance Sheet contains a list of all the assets and liabilities of the firm, as they stand at the end of the year

• This gives an exact picture of the financial condition of the firm at the end of the year. 7/31/2009

Ratio Analysis • Accounting ratios is an expression showing the relationship between two figures of financial statement. Accounting ratios may be expressed in terms of fractions like 1/2 ,1/3 or rates like two times, three times or percentage like 10%, 20%, etc. Many times absolute figures do not help to understand the position of the concern & the final account & financial statements prepared there from may not reveal enough information which will help in decision making. Therefore ratio analysis is employed as a tool to analyze financial position & make logical inferences out of the same. There are three types of ratio:1) Balance Sheet ratios. 2) Revenue Statement ratios. 3) Combined ratios.
