Simple Explanation of Debit and Credit Date Src ID# Memo Debit Credit ABC Hardware and Plumbing *None $5,500.00 Cr 8/current mth PJ 00000002 Purchase; ABC Hardware and Plumb $1,736.30 $7,236.30 Cr 10/current mth PJ 00000003 Purchase; ABC Hardware and Plumb $570.00 $7,806.30 Cr 28/current mth CD 1 Payment; ABC Hardware and Plu $5,500.00 $2,306.30 Cr Total: $5,500.00 $2,306.30 $2,306.30 Cr (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) owes $2,306.30 to ABC Hardware and Plumbing. ABC Hardware and Plumbing is therefore a Liability, remembering that Liabilities are amounts owed by the business. Accounting Rules state that Liabilities have a credit balance. [There is no reason, just an assumption all accounting rules are based on.] Therefore the purchase of $1,736.30 means that owes ABC Hardware and Plumbing MORE. Therefore to INCREASE the amount owing, the $1,736.30 has to go in the Credit column. Therefore the payment of $5,500.00 means that owes ABC Hardware and Plumbing LESS. Therefore to DECREASE the amount owing, the $5,500.00 has to go in the Debit column. Summary of Rules for you to complete: Liabilities have a.. balance.
