复式记账 Double Entry的原理
- Asset = Liability + Equity
- Equity = Contributed Capital + Retained Earning + OCI
- R/E = Revenue - Expense - Div Declared
So:
A = L + Capital + revenue - expense
Asset + Expense = Capital + Revenue + Liability
So:
资产和费用的增加记借方(Credit)，减少记贷方(Debt)；所有者权益、负债和收入的增加记贷方，减少记借方。
权责发生制 (Accrual accounting)
记账方式分为 权责发生制(Accrual Base)和现金收付制(Cash Base)
| Item | Assets | Liability | Revenue | Expense | Equity |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unearned revenue | 1 | 1 | |||
| Accrued revenue | 1 | 1 | 1 | ||
| Prepaid expenses | 11 | ||||
| Accrued expenses | 1 | 1 | 1 |
