    Study Notes

    Accounting Basics

    • Accounting provides quantitative financial information about economic entities to support informed decision-making.
    • Debits (Dr) originate from the Latin "debere," indicating what is received, while credits (Cr) come from "credere," indicating what is parted with.

    Fundamental Concepts

    • Every transaction involves a value received (debit) and a value parted with (credit), maintaining the balance: Debit = Credit.
    • Elements in accounting include Assets (debit), Liabilities (credit), Owner's Equity (credit), Drawings (debit), Revenues (credit), and Expenses (debit).

    T-Accounts

    • T-Accounts are visual representations of accounts, comprising a left (debit) side for values received and a right (credit) side for values parted with.
    • The balance of an account is determined by the difference between total debits and credits:
      • Debit Balance: If debits > credits
      • Credit Balance: If credits > debits
      • Closed Account: If debits = credits

    Transactions

    • Transaction analysis involves identifying value received and value parted with, categorized by account type and impact on financial statements.
    • Example transactions include:
      • Cash investment by Mr. Gutierrez: Debit Cash, Credit Owner’s Equity.
      • Cash withdrawal by Mr. Gutierrez: Debit Drawing, Credit Cash.
      • Salary payment: Debit Salaries Expense, Credit Cash.
      • Purchase of supplies on account: Debit Office Supplies, Credit Accounts Payable.

    Phases of Accounting

    • Phases include Recording (journaling transactions), Classifying (sorting into categories), Summarizing (preparing financial statements), and Interpreting (analyzing financial data).

    Bookkeeping vs. Accounting

    • Bookkeeping is focused on systematically recording transactions, while accounting involves analyzing and interpreting these records to produce financial reports.
    • Both processes are interdependent for effective financial management.

    Business Transactions

    • Business transactions are classified as external (between entities) or internal (within the business), affecting assets, liabilities, and equity.
    • Each transaction must reflect equal value exchange (received versus parted).

    Examples of Transaction Analysis

    • Transaction examples demonstrate the impact on accounts:
      • Bought a car for cash: Value received is the car, and the value parted is cash.
      • Each transaction adjusts respective accounts, providing insight into financial health.

    Importance of Debits and Credits

    • Understanding the rules of debits and credits is crucial for accurate financial reporting.
    • Each account type has a normal balance reflecting its typical state, guiding how transactions should be recorded.
