  2. Double-entry bookkeeping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-entry_bookkeeping

    The double entry system uses nominal ledger accounts. From these nominal ledger accounts, a trial balance can be created. The trial balance lists all the nominal ledger account balances. The list is split into two columns, with debit balances placed in the left hand column and credit balances placed in the right hand column.

  3. 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 ...

  4. Unit of account - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_account

    In economics, unit of account is one of the functions of money. A unit of account [1] is a standard numerical monetary unit of measurement of the market value of goods, services, and other transactions. Also known as a "measure" or "standard" of relative worth and deferred payment, a unit of account is a necessary prerequisite for the ...

  5. Seesaw theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seesaw_theorem

    In algebraic geometry, the seesaw theorem, or seesaw principle, says roughly that a limit of trivial line bundles over complete varieties is a trivial line bundle. It was introduced by André Weil in a course at the University of Chicago in 1954–1955, and is related to Severi's theory of correspondences.

  6. Balance equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_equation

    These balance equations were first considered by Peter Whittle. [8] [9] The resulting equations are somewhere between detailed balance and global balance equations. Any solution to the local balance equations is always a solution to the global balance equations (we can recover the global balance equations by summing the relevant local balance ...

  7. Method of dominant balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_dominant_balance

    [10] [11] A consistent solution that balances two equation terms may generate an accurate approximation to the full equation's solution for values approaching . [ 11 ] [ 12 ] Approximate solutions arising from balancing different terms of an equation may generate distinct approximate solutions e.g. inner and outer layer solutions .

  8. Equality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equality_(mathematics)

    More specifically, an equation represents a binary relation (i.e., a two-argument predicate) which may produce a truth value (true or false) from its arguments. In computer programming, the computation from the two expressions is known as comparison. [20] An equation can be used to define a set, called its solution set.

  9. Equating coefficients - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equating_coefficients

    The unique pair of values a, b satisfying the first two equations is (a, b) = (1, 1); since these values also satisfy the third equation, there do in fact exist a, b such that a times the original first equation plus b times the original second equation equals the original third equation; we conclude that the third equation is linearly ...
