Purchase of computer for cash 50000.  \nAnswer:  \nComputer A/c Dr. 50000  \nTo Cash A/c 50000  \nADAVANTAGES OF DOUBLE ENTRY SYSTEM  \n(i) By the use of this system the accuracy of the accounting work can be established, through the device of the trial balance.  \n(ii) The profit earned or loss suffered during a period can be ascertained together with details.  \n(iii) The financial position of the firm or the institution concerned can be ascertained at the end of each period, through preparation of the balance sheet.  \n(iv) The system permits accounts to be kept in as much details as necessary and, therefore affords significant information for the purposes of control etc.  \n(v) Result of one year may be compared with those of previous years and reasons for the change may be ascertained.  \nACCOUNTS  \n􀁸 Account is the summary of transaction and events of similar nature, recorded sequentially under a particular head is called account.  \n􀁸 Accounts are usually prepared in T-form.  \nLedger Account  \nDate Particulars Ref.

For recording transaction, it is very important that they are supported by a substantial document like purchasing invoices, bills, pay-slips, cash-memos, passbook etc.  \nTo analyse the dual aspect of each transaction, two approaches can be followed:  \nApproaches to analyse Double Entry System  \nAccounting Equation Approaches Traditional Approaches  \nAccounting Equation Approach  \nThe relationship of assets with that of liabilities and owners’ equity in the equation form is known as ‘Accounting Equation’.  \nAssets = Liabilities + Capital  \nor  \nAssets – Liabilities = Capital  \nTo understand the equation better, let us expand it:-  \nAssets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity  \nAssets = Liabilities + (contributed capital + beginning retained earnings + revenueexpense-dividends)  \nHere,  \nContributed capital = the original capital introduced by the owner.  \nPage 59  \nBeginning retained earnings = previous earnings not distributed to the shareholders. Revenue = generated from the ongoing activities of the business  \nExpenses = cost incurred for the operations of the company.  \nDividends = earnings distributed to the shareholders of the company  \nClass Example.  \n1. Which of the following represents the accounting equation  \nAssets = Liabilities + Owner’s equity:(a) Income Statement (b) Statement of Cash flows (c) Balance Sheet.  \n2.  \nTransactions Total Assets  \nRs  \n(1) Started business with cash Rs 10,00,000  \n(2) Borrowed Rs 5,00,000  \n(3) Withdrew cash from business Rs 2,00,000  \n(4) Loan repaid to the extent of Rs 1,00,000  \n10,00,000  \n+ 5,00,000  \n-2,00,000  \n= Liabilities Rs  \n+ 5,00,000  \n+ Owner’s Capital Rs  \n10,00,000  \n-2,00,000  \nPage 60  \nBalance  \n-1,00,000  \n12,00,000  \n-1,00,000  \n= 4,00,000  \n+ 8,00,000  \nTraditional Approaches  \nTransactions in the journal are recorded on the basis of the rules of debit and credit only. For the purpose of recording, these transactions are classified in three groups:  \n􀁸 Personal transactions.  \n􀁸 Transactions related to assets and properties.  \n􀁸 Transactions related to expenses, losses, income and gains.  \nClassification of Accounts  \nPersonal accounts  \n(Relate to persons, trade receivables or trade payables)  \nNatural p","cbCaivj2b4huzB6h","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivj2b4huzB6h","pdf",1086358,57,"English","# Double Entry System - Journal Entries\n## Developed Background and Core Rule\n## Advantages of Double Entry System\n## Accounts and Ledger Account Format\n## Debit and Credit (Meaning and Effects)\n## Transactions and Supporting Documents\n## Approaches to Analyse Double Entry System\n### Accounting Equation Approach\n### Traditional Approaches\n## Classification of Accounts\n## Golden Rules of Accounting\n## Worked Class Examples","[{\"question\":\"What is the double entry system and how should transactions be recorded?\",\"answer\":\"Under the double entry system, every transaction has two aspects that must be recorded in the books of accounts.
