Answer / badri narayan

Double entry system, it is self exclamatory. In simple
irrespective nature of a transaction, must have double
effect. That means for debit transaction there must be a
credit transaction.
For instance if written off depreciation from your fixed
asset. The transaction will be like this- deduct the
depreciation value from the Fixed Asset(one transaction)and
as it an expense you need to show it in profit or loss
account(second transaction).This is called double entry
system.

Answer / vamsi krishna

Double-entry accounting is a method of record-keeping that lets you track just where your money comes from and where it goes. Using double-entry means that money is never gained nor lost---it is always transferred from somewhere (a source account) to somewhere else (a destination account).
The main concept to remember, regardless of terminology, is that all transactions involve a transfer of some amount of money from a source to a destination.
