Transaction analysis rules: revenues and expenses written on the left side of the t account. All five elements are included such as assets, liabilities, shareholders equity, Accounts on the left side of the accounting equation, the increase symbol (+) is. For accounts on the right side, the increase symbol (+) is written on the right side. Expenses increase on the left side of the t account. Debits (dr) are written on the left side of each account and credits (cr) are written. Revenues increase net earnings, retained earnings and shareholders" equity. Revenues have credit balances, that is, to increase a revenue account you of the t account on the right credit it. Recording revenue results in either increasing an asset or decreasing a liability. Expenses decrease net earnings, thus decreasing retained earnings and shareholders equity. Expenses have debit balances; that is, to increase an expense, you debit it, Recording an expense results in either decreasing an asset or increasing a.

Identify a business or personal financial transaction. (You canchoose any one you like, it doesn't have to be one in thetextbook). Then answer the following questions which should resultin correctly identifying the accounts to be debited and credited:REQUIRED: 1) What are the specific accounts that are affected?(i.e. Cash, Accounts Receivable, Land, etc.) REMEMBER THAT THEREMUST BE AT LEAST 2 SPECIFIC ACCOUNTS AFFECTED. 2) What BROAD typeof Account do they belong to? (i.e. Asset, Liability or Equity) 3)Does this transaction result in an INCREASE or DECREASE to theaccount(s) in #2 above? 4) Using the rules for Debits and Creditsidentify which SPECIFIC ACCOUNT (#1) is to be debited and which isto be credited. REMEMBER: 1. ASSETS are on the LEFT side of theaccounting equation and therefore they INCREASE on the LEFT, DEBITSIDE; LIABILITIES AND EQUITY are on the RIGHT SIDE of the equationand therefore they INCREASE on the RIGHT, CREDIT side. 2. TOTALDEBITS MUST EQUAL TOTAL CREDITS!

Assets	=	Liabilities + Equity
The left side of the accounting equation shows the economic resources of the company (what the company has).	=	The right side of the accounting equation summarizes who provided those assets: Creditors or the owners.

When a business is first formed, both sides of the equation are equal to zero. As transactions occur, they affect the accounting equation, but the accounting equation must always stay in balance. A transaction can increase both sides or decrease both sides. A transaction could also affect only one side by increasing and decreasing one side at the same time.

APPLYING THE CONCEPTS: Analyzing Changes to Assets, Liabilities and Equity

Thomas Company: The table below demonstrates the effect of the first three transactions for Thomas Company. Review the details of each transaction and determine the effect on the accounting equation. Then, enter the updated amounts for the assets, liabilities, and equity accounts (do not record the the transaction). Enter all amounts as positive numbers. If an updated balance is zero, enter "0".

Transaction	Assets	=	Liabilities	+	Equity
Beginning	$0	=	$0	+	$0
Investment in the Business The owner of the company has invested $26,000 cash into the business. This increases the assets of the business from its zero balance. The owner has a claim on the assets, so equity also increases from its zero balance. Make sure the equation stays in balance.	$	=	$	+	$
Borrow Cash The company borrows $13,000 cash from the local bank. This increases the assets from its balance after the first transaction. The company now owes the bank; therefore, the bank also has a claim on the assets. Thus, liabilities increase from their zero balance. Notice this transaction did not affect equity. The equation still needs to balance.	$	=	$	+	$
Purchase equipment The company pays cash for a piece of equipment costing $10,000. Make sure that the equation stays in balance. Remember, the left side of the equation summarizes the total assets. The company has merely exchanged one asset (cash) for another asset (equipment); the value of each asset is the same.	$	=	$	+	$

Jones Company: Analyze the accounting equation for another business, Jones Company. Assume that the assets are $66,000 and the liabilities are $26,400. By rearranging the accounting equation, you determine that equity is $.

During the year, the owner invested an additional $4,000 in the business. The company also paid off $2,500 of its debt. What would the accounting equation look like at the end of the year for Jones Company? Enter the updated amounts for Jones' accounting equation below.

Assets	=	Liabilities	+	Equity
$	=	$	+	$

APPLYING THE CONCEPTS: Analyzing the Effect of Revenues and Expenses

The equity component of the accounting equation can be affected by more than owner contributions. In any form of business, the owners take all revenues and expenses. Therefore, equity increases for revenue earned and decreases for expenses incurred. Also in any form of business, money can be distributed from the business to the owners. Distributions (in the form of cash or other assets) to the owner decrease the equity account. Smith Company had transactions affecting equity during the past year. The table below demonstrates the effect of these transactions for Smith Company. Review the details of each transaction and determine the effect on the accounting equation. Then, enter the updated amounts for the assets, liabilities, and equity accounts (do not record the the transaction). Enter all amounts as positive numbers.

Transaction	Assets	=	Liabilities	+	Equity
Beginning of the year	$320,000	=	$96,000	+	$224,000
Revenues earned: During the year, Smith Company earned revenues totalling $192,000. The cash has been collected from the customers for all revenue earned this year.	$	=	$	+	$
Expenses incurred: Smith Company incurred expenses totalling $134,400 during that same year. All of the expenses incurred this year were paid in cash.	$	=	$	+	$
Distributions: At the end of each quarter, the owner withdraws cash from Smith Company. The sum of those quarterly distributions was $5,760.	$	=	$	+	$

APPLYING THE CONCEPTS: Putting it all together

Letâs put all the pieces together now. Suppose that you are analyzing Martin Company. You know that at the beginning of the year, the assets equaled $320,000 and the liabilities equaled $176,000. During the year, assets increased by $48,000 and equity increased by $74,400. The change in equity includes all increases and decreases. Further analysis reveals that the changes in equity were caused by revenues of $172,800 and expenses totaling $112,320 during the year, and additional ownersâ investments of $50,400 in the first half of the year. Because of your understanding of the accounting equation, you realize that distributions (withdrawals) to the owner must have also occurred during the year. However, you must determine the amountfor those distributions.

What is the amount of distributions made to the owner of Martin Company during the year? $

Complete the equation below with amounts for the end of the year.

Assets	=	Liabilities	+	Equity
$	=	$	+	$
