Single entry system.
Single entry mean there is only one entry for each
transction. Under this system, only the personal accounts

benefit receiving aspect or incoming aspect and the other
one is benefit giving aspect or out going aspect. The
benefit receiving aspect is said to be a 'debit' and the

account is to be credited in order to have a complete recor
of the tansacion.Therefore every transaction affecfts two
accounts in opposite direction.
