Resources, events, agents (REA) is a model of how an accounting system can be re-engineered for the computer age.REA was originally proposed in 1982 by William E. McCarthy as a generalized accounting model, [1] and contained the concepts of resources, events and agents (McCarthy 1982).
The accounting equation is a statement of equality between the debits and the credits. The rules of debit and credit depend on the nature of an account. For the purpose of the accounting equation approach, all the accounts are classified into the following five types: assets, capital, liabilities, revenues/incomes, or expenses/losses.
In mathematics, a duality, generally speaking, translates concepts, theorems or mathematical structures into other concepts, theorems or structures, in a one-to-one fashion, often (but not always) by means of an involution operation: if the dual of A is B, then the dual of B is A.
A variety of checks against abuse are usually present to prevent embezzlement by accounts payable personnel. Separation of duties is a common control. In countries where cheques payment are common nearly all companies have a junior employee process and print a cheque and a senior employee review and sign the cheque.
The duality gap is zero if and only if strong duality holds. Otherwise the gap is strictly positive and weak duality holds. [5] In computational optimization, another "duality gap" is often reported, which is the difference in value between any dual solution and the value of a feasible but suboptimal iterate for the primal problem.
However, even if a consistent system of accounting rules is devised that conceptually eliminates double counting, double counting may technically still occur to some extent. The first and most obvious reason is that, in actual accounting practice, boundary problems arise, because a flow of expenditures might be interpreted in different ways ...
Alec Baldwin is giving a peek into his life with wife Hilaria Baldwin, seven kids and many pets in the new TLC reality show "The Baldwins."
Dualism (philosophy of mind), where the body and mind are considered to be irreducibly distinct; De Morgan's laws, specifically the ability to generate the dual of any logical expression; Complementary duality of Carl Jung's functions and types in Socionics; Duality (CoPs), refers to the notion of a duality in a Community of Practice
