If the words "debits" and "credits" sound like a foreign
language to you, you are more perceptive than you
realize—"debits" and "credits" are words that have been
traced back five hundred years to a document describing
today's double-entry accounting system.
Under the double-entry system every business transaction is
recorded in at least two accounts. One account will receive
a "debit" entry, meaning the amount will be entered on the
left side of that account. Another account will receive a
"credit" entry, meaning the amount will be entered on the
right side of that account. The initial challenge with
double-entry is to know which account should be debited and
which account should be credited.
Before we explain and illustrate the debits and credits in
accounting and bookkeeping, we will discuss the accounts in
which the debits and credits will be entered or posted.
