Debits and credits are used to record ____, which have a monetary impact on the financial statements of an organization.
business transactions
In the language of accounting, a ____ represents a transaction or relocation of funds from one account to another when using a double-entry accounting system.
Debit

a double-entry accounting system

credits
Represents a transaction or relocation of funds from one account to another when using a double-entry accounting system.
Debit
Represent a decrease in assets or an increase in liabilities.
Credits
Under double-entry accounting, every debit always has an equal corresponding credit, which keeps the following equation in balance. Always
keep this in mind:
Assets = Liabilities + Equity
Example of Assets:
Cash
Tangible assets (building, land, machinery, vehicles and inventory)
Example of Liabilities:
Accounts Payable (A/P)
Interest expense, taxes, etc.
Examples of Owner’s equity or Equity:
Rent, capital, profit
Accountants call this the accounting
equation, and it’s the foundation of
double-entry bookkeeping. If at any
point this equation is out of balance,
that means the bookkeeper has
made a mistake somewhere along
the way.
Assets = Liabilities + Equity
A report that shows the financial activities and performance of a business. It is used by lenders and investors to check a business’s financial health and earnings potential.
Financial Statement
Focuses on the revenue, expenses, gains, and losses of a company during a particular period.
Income statement
There is usually a very close relationship
between Sales and Cost of Sales (or Cost of
Goods Sold). Many Companies, in determining
their selling prices, conveniently add a specific
percentage mark-up or margin to the Cost of
Sales, thus establishing a predictable ratio
between the two items. If an enterprise decides
to slap a hundred percent mark-up on its Cost of
Sales, the Sales figure will double the Cost of
Sales. As a percentage, Cost of Sales will,
therefore, be fifty percent of Sales.
Income Statement Forecasting
A financial report that summarizes the financial state of a business at a point in time. It provides an overview of the value of a business’s assets, liabilities, and owner’s equity.
Balance Sheet
Forecasting what the Balance Sheet of an
enterprise will look like in the future
depends a lot on the future Sales. The
Current Assets of the balance Sheet
include Cash, Marketable Securities,
Accounts Receivables, Inventories (Raw
Materials, Work-in-Process, and Finished
Goods), and other current Assets. Assets
in the Balance Sheet must always equal
liabilities and owners’ equity.
Balance Sheet Forecasting
The cash that flows into and out of various financial assets for specific periods of time. It’s usually measured on a monthly or quarterly basis. It doesn’t measure the performance of any single asset but emphasizes how cash is moving.
