  2. Balance (accounting) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_(accounting)

    In banking and accounting, the balance is the amount of money owed (or due) on an account. In bookkeeping, "balance" is the difference between the sum of debit entries and the sum of credit entries entered into an account during a financial period. [1] When total debits exceed the total credits, the account indicates a debit balance.

  3. Double-entry bookkeeping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-entry_bookkeeping

    Assets, Expenses, and Drawings accounts (on the left side of the equation) have a normal balance of debit. Liability, Revenue, and Capital accounts (on the right side of the equation) have a normal balance of credit. On a general ledger, debits are recorded on the left side and credits on the right side for each account. Since the accounts must ...

  4. Accounting equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accounting_equation

    Since the balance sheet is founded on the principles of the accounting equation, this equation can also be said to be responsible for estimating the net worth of an entire company. The fundamental components of the accounting equation include the calculation of both company holdings and company debts; thus, it allows owners to gauge the total ...

    The cash and inventory accounts are asset accounts; the revenue and expense accounts will close at the end of the accounting period to affect equity. Double-entry bookkeeping conventions are employed as well for the National Accounts. Economic concepts such as national product, aggregate income, investment and savings, as well as the balance of ...

  6. Balance equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_equation

    In some situations, terms on either side of the global balance equations cancel. The global balance equations can then be partitioned to give a set of local balance equations (also known as partial balance equations, [2] independent balance equations [7] or individual balance equations [8]). [1] These balance equations were first considered by ...

  7. Method of dominant balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_dominant_balance

    In mathematics, the method of dominant balance approximates the solution to an equation by solving a simplified form of the equation containing 2 or more of the equation's terms that most influence (dominate) the solution and excluding terms contributing only small modifications to this approximate solution.

  8. Sides of an equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sides_of_an_equation

    Similarly, RHS is the right-hand side. The two sides have the same value, expressed differently, since equality is symmetric. [1] More generally, these terms may apply to an inequation or inequality; the right-hand side is everything on the right side of a test operator in an expression, with LHS defined similarly.

  9. Balance puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_puzzle

    Remove one of the 3 coins, move another to the other side of the balance (remove all other coins from balance). If the balance evens out, the odd coin is the coin that was removed. If the balance switches direction, the odd coin is the one that was moved to the other side, otherwise, the odd coin is the coin that remained in place.
