#1 HACK DEALER accounting equation
In this video, we're going to simplify accounting debits and credits. We'll cover the basics of accounting and how debits and credits work. We will review the rules for debiting or crediting an account. We will also cover the accounting equation:
Assets = Liabilities + Equity
I will also go over the expanded accounting equation and tell you how the word DEALER can help you remember the rules of debits and credits.
the secret is that these debits and credits work together to keep the accounting equation balanced!
I will provide examples and T accounts to help you follow along!
This is a somewhat difficult concept to understand but once you do, you are on your way to learning accounting like a pro!
many students use T accounts to visualize the concept. I used the following when I was starting:
Assets = Liabilities + owner's equity
debit | credit = debit | credit debit | credit
+ - - + - +
I still have this picture in my head, and recall it every time I need to account for something, simple or complex!
Hope this helps. Let me know in the comments!

Thanks for this very informative video about very confusing debits and credits.
Glad it was helpful!
Do accounts receiveable add to the cash account. Are they equity? And does equity always add to the cash account.
There are so many videos on debits and credits that's not the hard part of accounting! 😢

How i learn accounting by you😊
Wouldn't the payment of an AR fall under income rather than Asset (7:40 timeline in vid).
Hello, if I understand correctly, you are asking if the collection of Accounts Receivable would result in income. The answer is no, the collection of an account receivable is a transfer from an asset (open Account Receivable to Cash (another Asset). The related income is recorded before this collection happens. When the business records the sale on credit, the income account is credited (under equity) and a receivable is debited (an asset). This is an example of accrual accounting. Hope this answers your question.
Im doing my own books. I paid my LLC annual franchise tax of $800 using my personal credit card. Is it correct to record it like this?: debit taxes and credit owners contribution?
yes, that is correct, you debit tax expense and you credit owner's equity. Best of luck!
