3.1 Introduction:
The dual aspect concept of accounting is a full-proof system of recording, having the advantageof internal checking. The very fact that every transaction is recorded of its debit and credit
aspects indicates that the final accounts of an organization takes into consideration every small or
big transaction and the impact is every account is absorbed in the preparation of final financial
statements. Double entry book keeping is definitely an improvement and more systematically

3.2 Meaning of Double Entry Accounting
We have learnt that the dual aspect recording is the most important accounting concept.
According to the concept, every business transaction involves receiving aspect and giving aspect.
If capital is brought in by the owner of the business unit, the owner is the giver of the benefit and
the business unit is the receiver of the benefit. It is a liability to the business unit and it is equally
balanced by an asset in the business unit, in the form of cash received towards capital. Therefore
every liability is represented by an asset. This is also expressed as every debit has an equivalent
credit.
The logic adopted in double entry accounting can well be understood by an illustration. We shall
consider five transactions and show how they are accounted for in the books of the business.
a. Mr. Abhi brings Rs.100000 cash as capital into his business.
b. He purchases furniture to his shop Rs.10000
c. He buys goods for cash Rs.50000
d. He sells goods worth Rs.30000 for Rs.40000 on credit to Arjun
e. He pays wages to servants Rs.1000

In the first transaction, the business receives capital in cash and so capital account and cash
account are affected. Capital is a liability and cash is an asset to the business.
Capital Rs.100000 (Liability) = Cash Rs.100000 (Asset)
In the second transaction, Furniture is purchased for cash and so furniture account and cash
account are affected. This transaction can be reflected as under
Capital Rs.100000 Cash Rs. (100000- 10000) 90000
Furniture 10000
100000 100000
The third transaction is buying goods for cash, which means that stock of goods are received andcash balance is reduced and this can be reflected in the statement as under.
Capital Rs.100000 Cash Rs (90000 50000) 40000
Furniture 10000
Stock of goods 50000
100000 100000
The fourth transaction is a credit transaction of selling goods for Rs40000, the cost of which is
only Rs. 30000 to Arjun. So the accounts affected are goods account, Arjun account and profit
account. Since the profit belongs to the owner and it is fair to add it to the owners capital. The
effect of this transaction can appear on the statement as shown below:
Capital Rs. 100000 Cash 40000
Profit 10000 Furniture 10000
Stock of goods(50000-30000) 20000
Arjun (Debtor) 40000
110000 110000
The fifth transaction is payment of wages, which means that cash account is affected and profit is
reduced as a result of the expenditure(wages account). This changes the statement as shown
below:
-

Sikkim Manipal University 32
Capital Rs. 100000 Cash (40000 1000) 39000
Profit (10000-1000) Furniture 10000
9000 Stock of goods 20000
Arjun 40000
109000 109000
From the above illustration, it is clear that every transaction has dual effect and recording these
two aspects which are known as debit and credit aspects is the fundamental idea behind double
entry system of book keeping. So the meaning of double entry system is that every transaction is
recorded by identifying the two or more accounts affected therein and suitably reflect them in the
financial statements. This is a system where internal cross checking is ensured.
Self Assessment Questions 1:
1. The system of recording transactions based on dual aspect concept is called
i) Double account system
ii) Double entry system
iii) Single entry system
2. Show the dual aspect effect of the following transactions on the assets and liabilities of
business.
a. Purchased goods for cash Rs.80000
b. Purchased delivery van on credit for Rs.400000
c. Paid Rs.5000 to a supplier of goods on credit
d. The proprietor withdrew Rs.20000 from the bank account of business for Personal
expenses.
3.3 Cash and mercantile system of double entry system
There are two systems of double entry book keeping namely cash system and mercantile system.
In case of cash system, transactions are recorded only if cash is received or paid. Government
accounting is done basing on this system. On the other hand, mercantile system is one where
both cash and credit transactions are recorded. Besides, outstanding expenses or incomes also
find place in the mercantile system. It is fair enough to adopt mercantile system because when an
event takes place, it gets recorded irrespective of its immediate impact on the cash position. In
case of credit transactions, cash does not flow immediately but it takes place at a future point of

time. Transactions like sales or purchases on credit, salary payable, rent receivable, interest
accrued but not received, depreciation provided etc., influence on the financial position of the
business unit and therefore they should be recorded. Mercantile system facilitates this. Hence
double entry recognizes the fact that every transaction, whether cash or credit, influences at leasttwo accounts one representing debit aspect and another credit aspect.

3.4 Accounting Trail
Accounting trail is the process of identifying the transactions or events, preparation of vouchers,
recording them as journal entries, preparation of ledger accounts, balancing the ledger accounts,
incorporating all adjustments, preparation of a trail balance and finally preparing the financial
statements and balance sheet. It is a sequential order in which the accounting process flows. All
transactions are recorded first in a book called journal. The transactions are posted to the
respective accounts, maintained in a separate book called ledger. Later, all adjustments such asopening entries, closing entries, adjusting entries are made in a book called journal proper and
there from, the ledger balances are summarized to form a trial balance. From trial balance,
trading account, profit and loss account and balance sheet are prepared.
The identification of the accounts affected in the transactions is a major task. There are three
types of accounts, namely personal accounts, real accounts and nominal accounts. An account is
a summary of transactions pertaining to a particular head.
Personal accounts include accounts of natural persons, such as Abhi account, Mohans account,
Sonali account etc artificial personal accounts such as Syndicate Bank account, X Co. Ltdaccount, a club account etc representative personal account like outstanding rent account,
salaries payable account etc.
Real accounts are those which may be tangible real accounts and intangible real accounts.
Tangible real accounts relate to things that can be touched, felt, physically measurable. Building

account, furniture account, stock account, cash account etc are tangible real accounts. Intangible
real accounts are such that they can not be seen or touched. They can be measured in terms of
money such as goodwill, patent rights etc.
Nominal accounts are also known as impersonal accounts. They are in the form of expenses or
losses, incomes or gains. They do not really exist in physical form, but behind every nominal
account cash is involved. For example, salary account is a nominal account and when salary is
paid, the reality is the cash goes out and there is nothing salary in physical form. Therefore salary
account is regarded as nominal account. Similarly all expenses and losses and all incomes and
gains accounts are regarded as nominal accounts.
Self Assessment Questions 3:

3.5 Transactions and Events
A transaction is a business activity involving transfer of money or moneys worth. It may be cash
transaction or credit transaction. In cash transaction cash flows immediately where as in credit
transaction cash will be paid or received at future date. Assets acquired or sold, liabilities incurred
or paid, expenses paid or payable, incomes received or receivable are all business
transactions. But there are events which are neither cash nor credit transactions but it has an
impact on the financial position of a business. These events may include provision for bad debts,
provision for repairs, depreciation, taxation, transfer of profit towards reserve fund or sinking fund
or investment fluctuation fund, etc., Events happen as a result of internal policies or external
needs. In accounting, transactions and events have equal relevance and they must be recorded
to arrive at the financial results of the business concern.

3.6 Preparation of Vouchers
A voucher is a document in support of a business transaction. It may b e a receipt, a counterfoil of
a receipt, an invoice or even correspondence with the concerned parties. Usually in large
organizations, voucher system is adopted to record payments. Some organizations will have
printed voucher book and each voucher contains the number of voucher, date, the name of
payee to whom the payment is made, the amount, the purpose for which payment is made,
signature of the person authorized to pay and the person who receives the payment. For
instance, Ram has supplied to us goods worth Rs5000, for which he has given an invoice. This
invoice itself can be regarded as voucher, against which the payment is made. If carriage charges
of Rs100 are paid, we prepare a voucher and take the signature of the person who receives it.
When we pay cash, the receiver will give us a receipt, that itself becomes a voucher. Vouchers
are often prepared basing on the invoices received or goods received returns. The actual
payment may be made partially or completely and it may be made in course of time. In such
cases, they are entered in Voucher register. The payment of a voucher is recorded in cheque
register. The system has the following advantages:
1. It safeguards all cash disbursements
2. Total amount payable to creditors can be found out with the help of unpaid
3. vouchers.
4. Internal check is ensured
5. Information about future cash requirements can be found out.
However, the system is not suitable for small organizations because it involves personnel and the
cost of maintenance.
Self Assessment Questions 5:
1. Voucher system is adopted to record payments. True or False?
2. Voucher system is suitable for small organizations. True or False?
3. Voucher is a document showing the__________for which payment is made.

3.7 Financial statements and their nature
Financial statements are prepared to find out the profit or loss at the end of an accounting period.
In a trading concern, trading account and profit and loss account are prepared. The purpose of
preparing trading account is to find out the gross profit / loss. Similarly, profit and loss account is
prepared to find out net profit / loss. Both these accounts are revenue accounts. In other words,
all revenue receipts and revenue payments are considered. Revenue expenses are those which
are incurred in day to day business activities. Examples may include wages, carriage expenses,
insurance premium paid on stocks, salaries, printing, stationary, administrative expenses, selling
expenses and so on. Revenue receipts are called incomes and the examples include rent
received, sales made, interest received, dividend received, discount received, royalty received,
compensation received etc. More details about trading and profit and loss account are given in
Unit 7.
After preparing final accounts, a balance sheet is prepared containing capital and liabilities on
one side and assets on the other side of a statement. Balance sheet is a statement of affairs and
not an account. Liabilities of a business include trade creditors, bills payable, bank over draft,
loans payable, outstanding expenses, pre-received incomes etc. Capital of the owner, which is
called equity, is added with liabilities on the left side of the balance sheet. Assets of a business
include fixed assets like buildings, plant, machinery, furniture etc current assets like sundry
debtors, bills receivable, closing stock of materials, outstanding incomes, prepaid expenses, cash
in hand, cash at bank etc., Trading account or profit and loss account and balance sheet are
prepared at the end of a particular accounting period, say one year. In Unit 7, details about
balance sheet preparation are given.

1. Trading account and Profit and loss account are revenue accounts. True or False?
2. What is the purpose of preparing Trading Account?
3. What is the end result of preparing profit and loss account?

3.8 Accounting equation
The preparation of balance sheet is the final step in accounting process. The accounting equation
indicates that the sources of funds should be equal to uses of funds. In other words, proprietors
equity and liabilities to outsiders should be equal to assets.
Sources of Funds = Application of funds OR
Owners equity = Asset OR
Owners equity + outside liabilities = Assets OR
L + P = A, where L is liabilities, P is proprietor equity and A
means assets. From this equation, the following expressions can be obtained
L = A P
P = A L
A L P = Zero
Self Assessment Questions 7:
1. Liabilities plus Equity is equal to ____________________________.
2. Assets minus liabilities to outsiders is equal to __________________.
3. If assets are Rs.5 lakhs, liabilities are Rs.3 lakhs, find out equity.
4. If Owners equity is Rs3 lakhs, Outsider liabilities are Rs.2 lakhs, Owners share of profit is
Rs.1 lakhs, find out the total value of assets.
5. Every transaction influences balance sheet and it is shown by accounting equation True or
False?
3.9 Effect of Transactions on Accounting Equation
As said earlier, every transaction has its effect on the balance sheet equation. This has been
amply illustrated while discussing the meaning of double entry. The dual aspect of a transaction
is reflected on the balance sheet, ultimately making liabilities side equal to asset side of a
balance sheet. The following are the possible sets of transactions that can change the values of
assets and liabilities but the changes are equal on both sides of balance sheet.
1. Increase in one asset with a decrease in another asset. For example, goods are purchased
for cash. It affects cash balance to come down and stock balance increases and both ofthem are assets.
2. An increase in one asset with an equal amount of increase in liability. For example, a
building is purchased for business for Rs500000 by raising a loan from bank. Here an asset
is created and a loan is also raised and the balance sheet tallies.

Sikkim Manipal University 38
3. An increase in asset with an equivalent rise in the proprietors equity. When an additional
capital is obtained in cash, Cash account on the asset side increases and capital account on
the liabilities side also increases with the same amount.
4. An increase in a liability causing an equal amount of decrease in another liability. Ex: A
banks overdraft is paid out of debenture amount collected. Here debenture liability
increases with an equal amount of decrease in banks overdraft.
5. Increase in a liability, followed by decrease in proprietors equity. If debentures are issued for
the purpose of paying redeemable preference shares, the owners equity gets reduced and
an additional liability of debentures is added up.
6. Decrease in an asset and equivalent decrease in a liability. For instance, bills payable are
paid out by cheque. The bank balance which is an asset is decreased and correspondingly
the liability of bills payable is also decreased.
7. Decrease in an asset and corresponding decrease in owners equity. If capital is paid out for
any reason, cash to that extent is decreased on the asset side and the capital is reduced to
that extent on the liabilities side.
Self Assessment Questions 8:
1. The principle of accounting equation is that the total of assets should be equal to total of
liabilities side. True or False.
2. Show how the accounting equation is affected in the following transactions
a. Lal started business with Rs20000 cash
b. He purchased goods on credit Rs.80000
c. He sold goods costing Rs.25000 for Rs.30000 on cash.
d. He purchased furniture for cash Rs14000
e. He sold goods to Hari costing Rs500 for Rs.800
f. He received dividend on securities Rs.2000
3.10 Meaning and rules of debit and credit
Debit and credit are the two words basic for accounting. Debit represents receiving aspect and
credit represents giving aspect. However the meaning of debit and credit depends upon the
classification of accounts. An account, as we have understood is a summary of transactions
pertaining to a particular head. The account may be personal, real and nominal. Before grasping
the rules of debit and credit as applicable to various classes of accounts, it is necessary to know
how an account appears in the books of accounts. An account is recorded in a T form, the left

side indicating the debit of the account and the right side representing the credit of the account.
On the left side of an account the columns are - date, particulars, ledger folio and amount and
similarly on the right side (credit side), the columns are date, particulars, ledger folio and amount.

2. The amount received from Joseph is Rs.10900 and his account is prepared in the in the page
number 35 of the ledger. Similarly from sales and its account is found in the ledger folio
(page) 18.
3. The credit side contains payment of cash towards salary, furniture, purchase of goods and
rent respectively on different dates.
4. The balance carried down is the closing balance on the last day of January, 2005 and it is
brought down as opening balance on Feb,1
5. On the debit side, To and credit side By are the prefix used for every entry as a matter of
convention.
There is a standard form of drawing a ledger account. It is similar to that of a pass book issued by
a bank. The above illustration is shown in the standard form.

1. In respect of personal accounts : Debit the receiver and credit the giver
2. In respect of real accounts : Debit what comes in and credit what goes out
3. In respect of nominal accounts : Debit all expenses and losses and credit all incomes
and gains.
The following steps should be remembered to apply debit and credit principles
a) Identify the accounts affected in a transaction from business point of view
b) If a personal account is involved, find whether the person is receiver or giver of benefit
c) If the real account is affected, find whether it is coming in or going out
d) If the account is nominal account, find out if it is expenditure or income or loss or gain.
e) Apply the suitable principle to debit or credit the respective affected account.
