2-11 Learning Objectives Apply transaction analysis to simple business transactions in terms of the accounting model: Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity

2-12 Principles of Transaction Analysis  Every transaction affects at least two accounts (duality of effects).  The accounting equation must remain in balance after each transaction. A = L + SE (Assets) (Liabilities)(Stockholders’ Equity)

2-13 Duality of Effects exchange gives up receives Most transactions with external parties involve an exchange where the business entity gives up something but receives something in return.

2-14 Balancing the Accounting Equation Accounts and effects  Identify the accounts affected and classify them by type of account (A, L, SE).  Determine the direction of the effect (increase or decrease) on each account. Balancing  Verify that the accounting equation (A = L + SE) remains in balance.

2-15 Balancing the Accounting Equation Let’s see how we keep the accounting equation in balance for Papa John’s. All amounts we use are expressed in thousands of dollars.

2-35 A typical journal looks like this: Analytical Tool: The Journal Entry

2-36 Analytical Tool: The Journal Entry A journal entry might look like this:

2-37 Analytical Tool: The Journal Entry Provide a reference date for each transaction. Debits are written first. Credits are indented and written after debits. Total debits must equal total credits.

2-38 Post Ledger Analytical Tool: The T-Account After journal entries are prepared, the accountant posts (transfers) the dollar amounts to each account affected by the transaction.
