Accounting, core rules and journal entries

1The core equation

  • Assets = Equity + Liabilities
  • Assets = Liabilities + Equity, always equal
  • Assets, what you have
  • Equity & liabilities, where it came from

2Debit and credit rule

  • Asset account: balance and increase, Debit
  • Liability/equity account: balance and increase, Credit
  • Decrease, on the opposite side

3Double-entry

  • Each transaction, on 2 accounts
  • Debit on one, Credit on the other
  • The amounts are always equal
  • This is a journal entry (correspondence)

4Tax rates

  • VAT, 12%
  • Profit tax, 15%
  • Income tax (payroll), 12%
  • Turnover tax (retail), ~4%

5VAT calculation

  • VAT = amount × 12%
  • Total = amount + VAT
  • VAT payable = output − input VAT

6Depreciation (straight-line)

  • Annual = (initial − salvage) ÷ life
  • Monthly = annual ÷ 12
  • Rate = 100% ÷ life

7Profit calculation

  • Gross profit = revenue − cost
  • Pre-tax profit = gross − period expenses
  • Net profit = pre-tax − profit tax
