The Tangible Assets, Liabilities and Cash are all good! It is the Intangible Assets and Goodwill that an investor has to worry about, as these are the accounts which unscrupulous managers can debit with "hot air" and "jingle bells"!

How come you're subtracting assets from an asset (cash) or debits from a debit (cash). Isn't cash an asset? Shouldn't cash be on the debit side vs. the credit side of the equation?
@TheFinanceStoryteller8 ай бұрын
Hello Jamal! Yes, cash is an asset. The natural state is for an asset account to have a debit balance. The account balance goes up when you debit it, and goes down when you credit it. The transaction I am describing in this video has cash leaving the company, hence the credit entry to the account. With the T-accounts that I was drawing, I only highlighted the journal entry, NOT the total account balance or flow in the cash account. Does that help?

What is "journal" exactly? Some sources say: 1) "daybooks" come first, which is where you post prime entries i.e. follow single-entry accounting 2) "journals" are next which groups the transactions into accounts, posting journal entries i.e. following double-entry accounting Other sources say: 1) "journals" come first, which is where you post journal entries i.e. follow single-entry accounting 2) "ledgers" are next which groups the transactions into accounts, posting entries that follow double-entry accounting So I know daybooks are 1st with single-entry, and ledgers come after with double-entry......but journals...different people seem to use this word very differently. Why???
@TheFinanceStoryteller3 жыл бұрын
Daybooks, journals and ledgers are ancient terms, from before the days of computing. I wouldn't get too worked up about them, hardly anybody uses these in the real world. The main thing in today's world is transactions that are made in subledgers (which get posted to the general ledger through accounting transaction tables: if a sale is made on credit to a customer (subledger) then post journal entry debit accounts receivable credit revenue (general ledger)).

I am confused on why the outside service expenses will drop the equity, as equity is what the owner own and lability is what the owner owe, if we decrease equity coz the expenses and increase liability coz the payable, doesnt this mean a double loss for the owner ? Even though in equation the asset stay the same
@TheFinanceStoryteller2 жыл бұрын
Hello there! Good question. Expense accounts are part of a category of accounts called "temporary accounts", where the account balance needs to be “reset” to zero through closing entries at the end of the period. The balances are transferred to the income summary account, which in turn gets closed out to retained earnings (which is part of equity). Then you can start the new year with all income statement accounts at zero. For more detail, see this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYnMfH-ql5ynp6s

Hello Anthony! It's an agreement/convention on how to record financial transactions, to ensure everybody uses the same logic, and to know what you are looking at when you read financial statements. Similar to every country mandating whether to drive on the left or on the right side of the road, and specifying how wide a train track needs to be, or whether to use the metric system of the imperial system to measure distance and weight. To illustrate how helpful it is, check out this video on balance sheet and income statement relationship: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYvHkol7jZlkjbM Or for a short story on the history of accounting kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnKvYaZ4mZ6ir8k

@@TheFinanceStoryteller I understand the need for conventions, but conventions generally make some sense. Everyone drives on a certain side so we don't crash. The convention you're explaining is wrong and illogical. We don't always owe what we own. That would be a strange coincidence if all of my assets exactly equal my liabilities. Hopefully one day, I will own far more than I owe....then I can consider retirement. For example....if someone inherits millions at birth and saves it all..... they own a lot, and owe nothing. Your explanation is either wrong or incomplete.
@TheFinanceStoryteller2 жыл бұрын
The accounting equation kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYrUnWqPbrOheMk says assets = liabilities plus equity. So from an accounting standpoint, if you inherent millions at birth, then on the assets side you have millions (in cash, jewelry, cars, art, houses) and on the other side the same millions in equity. I have personally never made a balance sheet for my personal wealth, but on a company basis this is the way you would do it.

@@TheFinanceStoryteller Another ridiculous answer that doesn't address your very first claim. You claim that what you owe equals what you own. Simply not true. And now you introduce a whole new concept to make it add up....equity. It's like saying what you own (assets) equals what you would get if you sold everything(equity). What a bizzare way of saying the value or what you own equals the value of what you own. Am I missing something ? or is this entire convention ludicrous ? This is my interpretation so far. the value of what you have = selling your stuff - what you owe. How is this reduntant simplistic stupidity at the core of a profession ? Are accountants really so stupid they need to concoct something called equity just to make a useless convention add up ?
