Document Summary

Financial accounting uses the double-entry system, whereby the accounting equation is always kept in balance. If an asset goes up, a liability or equity must go up too (or another asset must go down). If a liability goes up, an asset must go up too, or an equity or another liability must go down. Net profit for the period = revenues expenses for the period. Income is increases in economic benefits during the account period in the form of inflows or enhancements of assets or decrease in liabilities that result in increases in equity, other than relating to contributions from equity participants". Revenue arises in the course of ordinary activities of the entity, e. g. sales, fees, interest, rent, royaltieis and commissions. Revenues are increases in the company"s wealth arising from the provision of services or the sale of goods to customers.
