Accounting equation:
Accounting equation depicts that all the financial transaction has impact over 2 or more than 2 accounts. This accounting equation depict that all the assets of a company are either bought by the company on cash or borrowing money (Noreen, Brewer & Crawford, 2011). Thus the accounting equation of the finance is:
Accounting Equation = Assets - Liabilities = capital
The above discussed equation has been analyzed over the above given calculation to analyze that whether the above recorded transaction are correct or not. For analyzing it, all the assets have been added and subtracted from liabilities which would be equal to the total capital of the company.
In the given case, the total assets are = 43800+5000+3000+10000
Whereas the total liabilities = 10000
And, the total capital of the company = 51800
If the following information is putted into the accounting equation than,
Accounting Equation = Assets - Liabilities = capital
So, =43800+5000+3000+10000-10000 = 50000+1800
51800=51800 (Garrison et al, 2010)
It proves that the total assets and liabilities are equal to the capital of the company and thus it has been proved that the financial transaction has been recorded in a good manner by the accountant and in a correct way.
