Accounting Equation
Module 3, lesson 1
Review:
The five major accounts:
1. ASSETS
2. LIABILITIE
3. OWNER’S EQUITY
4. INCOME
5. EXPENSES
In accounting, it is understood that every business activity always
has a two-sided effect on the business. This two-sided effect is best
illustrated in the accounting equation, which states that the asset of
the business entity should always be equal to the business’s total
capital added to its total liabilities to its suppliers. Thus:
• Assets = Liabilities + Equity
• Liabilities = Assets – Equity
• Equity = Assets – Liabilities
Regardless of how

equation must
always balance.
