Explain the impact of the following transaction:

Explain the impact of the following transaction:
Company takes out a new long-term loan for 100 000$
Total assets increase because the company now has 100 000$ in cash( on the left-side of the equation)
There is also an additional long-term liability( the new bank loan that the company now has to pay.
Explain the financial impact of this transaction.
The company receeives raw material worth 50 000$ and has been invoiced by the vendor in full. The company has not yet paid for this purchase.
Since the company has an additional 50 000$ worth of raw material, assets have increased.
The company owes 50 000$ and hence its account payable - a liability - has increased by 50 000$.
Explain the financial impact of this transaction.
The company uses 200 000$ of its cash to buy back ( repurchase) some if its own stock,

“Does represent”
True or False?
The General Ledger is based on a Chat of Accounts. All the accounts with their account numbers specifies in the Chart of Accounts exist in the G/L and we can the various postings as well in the GL.

If two different company codes use the same Chart of Accounts for their General Ledger, does this mean that they will always have identical transactions posted for each account?
No. The chart of account is only the structure. The company will post its transactions to its own general ledger.
What is the impact on profits if a company charges less depreciation than it should?

Accounts that accumulate the postings made in subledger.
