BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS
It is an exchange of values between
two parties in terms of money

and right side

the accounting equation is simply:
ASSETS = OWNERS EQUITY
Example: Peter Soriano invested
P2,000,000 cash in a good business
ASSETS
=
OWNERS
EQUITY
Cash P2,000,000
Soriano, Capital 42
P2,000,000

ACCOUNTING EQUATION
If there is a claim from both the creditor
and owner, the accounting equation
becomes longer
ASSETS = LIABILITIES + OWNERS
EQUITY
Example: Assume that Soriano borrowed
cash of P1,000,000 from the bank for use
in the business
ASSETS
= LIABILITIES + OWNERS
EQUITY
43
Cash P3,000,000
P2,000,000

Loan Payable P1,000,000 Soriano, Capital
