THE ACCOUNTING EQUATION

Formulas and equations are important to solve a certain mathematical problem not only
in the fields of Mathematics and Science but also in Accounting. Its equation has two sides - the
left and the right side. The left side of the equation is the company’s assets and the liabilities and
equity are shown on the right side.

The BASIC ACCOUNTING EQUATION is shown below:


ASSETS = LIABILITIES + OWNER’S EQUITY

The Basic Accounting Equation can also be expressed as follows:


OWNER’S EQUITY = ASSETS – LIABILITIES
LIABILITIES = ASSETS – OWNER’S EQUITY

The accounting equation formula represents the relationship between the assets,
liabilities, and owner's equity of a business. The value of a company's assets should always equal
the sum of its liabilities and owner's equity.
The underlying concept of this formula is that every asset acquired by a company was
financed either through debt (liability) or through investment from owners (owner’s equity).

• For every transaction, the accounting equation should always be balanced.

The accounting equation consists of three (3) major accounts:

1. ASSETS – are the items that a company owns that can provide future economic benefit.
Assets are valuable resources controlled by the company.
EXAMPLES OF ASSETS: Cash, Accounts Receivables, Notes Receivables, Furniture,
Equipment, Supplies, Long term Investments, Inventory, Building & Land

2. LIABILITIES – are the financial obligation of a company that results in the company’s future
sacrifices of economic benefits to other businesses.
EXAMPLES OF LIABILITIES: Accounts Payable, Notes Payables, Accrued Expense,
Unearned Income, Loans Payable & Mortgage Payable
3. EQUITY – is the residual interest of the owner of the business. Meaning, any assets left after
paying liabilities is the right of the owner of the business. It is simply assets minus liabilities.
Other terms for equity are “capital”, “net assets,” and “net worth. There are four elements that
affect equity: (1) Investment; (2) Withdrawal; (3) Revenue, and; (4) Expenses.

Four elements that affect equity:

a. Investment is an asset or item acquired with the goal of generating income or appreciation.

b. Withdrawal occurs when funds are removed from an account for personal use.

c. Revenue is the total amount of income generated by the sale of goods or services related to the
company’s primary operations.

d. Expenses are the cost of operations that a company incurs to generate revenue.

EXPANDED ACCOUNTING EQUATION:


ASSETS = LIABILITIES + OWNER’S EQUITY – DRAWINGS + REVENUES – EXPENSES

Like the basic accounting equation, the expanded accounting equation shows the
relationships among the accounting elements.

What's the difference? In the expanded accounting equation, the "capital" portion is
broken down into several components: contributions, withdrawals, income, and expenses.

Owners' contributions are often recorded directly into Capital. Thus, additional
contributions are already included in "Capital".

Nevertheless, if you want to show all of the components, then you can rewrite the
equation as:

Assets = Liabilities + (Owner’s Equity at beginning + Additional Contributions - Drawings


+ Revenue - Expenses)

Contributions and revenue increase capital. Drawings and expenses decrease it.

The difference between income and expenses represents profits or loss (net income or net loss).
• If income is greater than expenses, the difference is profit.
• If income is less than expenses, the difference is loss.
• If income is equal to expenses, it is called breakeven.

Let’s try how accounting equation works. I encourage you to diligently study the following drills:

CASE 1: TOTAL ASSETS


Given liabilities of Php10, 000 and the owner’s equity of Php50, 000. Find the value of the assets.

FORMULA: ASSETS = LIABILITIES + OWNER’S EQUITY


ASSETS = 10,000 + 50,000
ASSETS = 60,000

CASE 2: TOTAL LIABILITIES


Based on the following information: Economic resources 240,000 and Residual Interest 150,000.
Compute the. Economic obligations.

FORMULA: LIABILITIES = ASSETS – OWNER’S EQUITY


LIABILITIES = 240,000 – 150,000
LIABILITIES = 90,000
CASE 3: TOTAL OWNER’S EQUITY
If a business has total Assets of Php100,000 and total Liabilities of Php60,000, what is the amount
of Total Owner’s Equity?

FORMULA: OWNER’S EQUITY = ASSETS – LIABILITIES


OWNER’S EQUITY = 100,000 – 60,000
OWNER’S EQUITY = 40,000

CASE 4.1: PROFIT OR LOSS


If you have total income of ₱5,000 and total expenses of ₱2,000, how much is your profit (or
loss)?

Solution:
Total Income 5,000
Less: Total Expenses (2,000)
Profit 3,000

CASE 4.2: PROFIT OR LOSS


If you have total revenue of ₱6,000 and total expenses of ₱11,000, how much is your profit (or
loss)?

Solution:
Total Revenue 6,000
Less: Total Expenses (11,000)
Loss (5,000)

CASE 5: INCOME/REVENUE
If you have total expenses of ₱2,000 and a profit of ₱3,000, how much is your total income?

Solution:
Total Income ? (Squeeze)
Less: Total Expenses (2,000)
Profit 3,000 (Start)

The unknown (“?”) is simply “squeezed.” In accounting, to “squeeze” means to come up


with an unknown amount in a given formula by performing basic arithmetic functions like
adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing. When squeezing “upwards” (just like in the
illustration above), the arithmetic function is simply reversed. Thus, the amount ₱2,000 which is
deducted when solving downwards is added when “squeezing” upwards.

Answer: Total income = (3,000 + 2,000) = 5,000

CASE 6: EXPENSES
If you have total revenue of ₱5,000 and a profit of ₱3,000, how much is your total expenses for
the period?

Solution:
Total revenue 5,000
Total expense ? (Squeeze)
Profit 3,000
Answer: Total expenses = (5,000 – 3,000) = 2,000
CASE 7.1: ENDING TOTAL ASSETS
You have total assets, liabilities and equity of ₱10,000, ₱7,000 and ₱3,000, respectively, at the
beginning of the period. During the period, your total liabilities decreased by ₱4,000 while your
profit is ₱5,000. How much is your ending total assets?

Solutions:
Assets Liabilities Equity
Beginning 10,000 7,000 3,000
Decrease in (4,000) 5,000
Liabilities / Profit
Ending ? 3,000 8,000

Answer: Ending total assets = (3,000 liabilities, end + 8,000 equity, end) = 11,000

CASE 7.2: ENDING TOTAL ASSETS


You have total assets, liabilities and equity of ₱11,000, ₱8,500 and ₱2,500, respectively, at the
beginning of the period. During the period, your total liabilities increased by ₱3,000 while your
owner’s equity increased by ₱4,000. How much is your ending total assets?

Solutions:
Assets Liabilities Equity
Beginning 11,000 8,500 2,500
Adjustment 3,000 4,000
Ending ? 11,500 6,500

Answer: Ending total assets = (11,500 liabilities, end + 6,500 equity, end) = 18,000

CASE 8: ENDING TOTAL LIABILITIES


At the beginning of the year, Makakalimutin Company had total assets of 15,000 and total
liabilities of 4,000. If total assets decreased by 5,000 and owner’s equity increased to 6,000. How
much is the total liabilities at the end of the year?

Solutions:
Assets Liabilities Equity
Beginning 15,000 4,000 ?
Adjustment (5,000)
Ending ? 6,000

Assets Liabilities Equity


Beginning 15,000 4,000 11,000
Adjustment (5,000) - -
Ending 10,000 4,000 6,000

Answer: Ending total liabilities = (10,000 assets, end + 6,000 equity, end) = 4,000
CASE 9.1: ENDING TOTAL OWNER’S EQUITY
At the beginning of the year, EZ Mil Company had total liabilities of 9,000 and total owner’s
equity of 14,000. If total assets increased by 3,000 and total liabilities decreased to 5,000. How
much is the total liabilities at the end of the year?

Solutions:
Assets Liabilities Equity
Beginning ? 9,000 14,000
Adjustment 3,000
Ending 5,000 ?

Assets Liabilities Equity


Beginning 23,000 9,000 14,000
Adjustment 3,000 -
Ending 26,000 5,000 21,000

Answer: Ending total owner’s equity = (21,000 assets, end + 5,000 liabilities, end) = 21,000

CASE 9.2: ENDING TOTAL OWNER’S EQUITY


Your beginning equity is ₱5,000. No additional contributions or withdrawals during the period.
If your total income for the period is ₱8,000 while your total expenses as ₱6,000, how much is
the ending balance of your equity?

Solution:
(Owner’s Equity at beginning + Additional Contributions - Drawings + Revenue - Expenses)
5,000 + 0 - 0 + 8,000 - 6,000

Answer: 5,000 + 8,000 – 6,000 = 7,000

CASE 9.3: ENDING TOTAL OWNER’S EQUITY


Your beginning equity is ₱12,000. Additional contributions are ₱7,000. Withdrawals are ₱4,000.
If your total income for the period is ₱5,000 while your total expenses are ₱8,000, how much is
the ending balance of your equity?

Solution:
(Owner’s Equity at beginning + Additional Contributions - Drawings + Revenue - Expenses)
12,000 + 7,000 - 4,000 + 5,000 - 8,000

Answer: 12,000 + 7,000 - 4,000 + 5,000 - 8,000 = 12,000

CASE 10: REVENUE/INCOME


You have ending “total assets of ₱4,800, ending total liabilities of ₱1,000 and beginning equity is
₱800. No additional contributions or withdrawals during the period. If your total expenses for the
period amount to ₱2,000, how much is your total income?
Solution:
Assets = Liabilities + (OE beg + AC - D + Revenue - Expenses)
4,800 1,000 800 0 0 ? 2,000

Answer: 4,800 = 1,000 + 800 +? – 2,000


4,800 = 1,000 + 800 + 5,000 – 2,000

or
4,800 = 1,000 + 800 +? – 2,000
4800 – 1,000 – 800 + 2,000 = 5,000
CASE 11: EXPENSES FOR THE PERIOD
You can have ending total assets of ₱4,800, ending total liabilities of ₱1,000 and beginning
equity of ₱800. Additional contributions are ₱3,000. Withdrawals are ₱2,000. If your total
income for the period amounts to ₱5,000, how much is your total expenses?

Solution:
Assets = Liabilities + (OE beg + Additional Contributions - Drawings + Revenue - Expenses)
4,800 1,000 800 3,000 2,000 5,000 ?

Answer: 4,800 = 1,000 + 800 + 3,000 – 2,000 + 5,000 –?


4,800 = 1,000 + 800 + 3,000 – 2,000 + 5,000 – 3,000

To maintain this equation, transactions affecting financial position accounts may have the
following effects:

• Increase in Assets = Increase in Owner’s Equity


Example: Calma started his new business by depositing Php 350,000.00 in a bank account in the
name of Calma Graphics Design at Masa Bank.

• Increase in Assets = Increase in Liabilities


Example: Calma acquired computer equipment by issuing a Php 40,000.00 note payable to
Microsoft Office Systems. The note is due in six months.

• Increase in one Asset = Decrease in another Asset


Example: Calma paid Php 10,000.00 to El Grande Suites for rent on the office studio for the
months of June, July, and August.

• Decrease in Assets = Decrease in Liabilities


Example: Calma partially paid Php 15,000.00 for the purchase of computer supplies on account.

• Decrease in Assets = Decrease in Owner’s Equity


Example: Calma paid Php 5,000.00 to Bills Express for the semi-monthly utilities.

• Increase in Liabilities = Decrease in Owner’s Equity


Example: Yola Company billed Calma for Php 25,000.00 for the ads. Calma will pay next
month.

As business transactions take place, the values of the accounting elements change. The
accounting equation nonetheless always stays in balance.
Every transaction has a two-fold effect. Meaning, at least two accounts are affected.

Assume the following transactions:


1. Mr. Alex invested P20,000 to start a printing business,
2. The company obtained a loan from a bank, P30,000,
3. The company purchased printers and paid a total of P1,000.

How will the transactions affect the accounting equation?

Let us take a look at transaction #1:


Transaction Assets = Liabilities + Capital
1. Owner's investment 20,000.00 = + 20,000.00

Again, every transaction has a two-fold effect. In the above transaction, Assets increased
as a result of the increase in Cash. At the same time, Capital increased due to the owner's
contribution. Remember that capital is increased by contribution of owners and income, and
is decreased by withdrawals and expenses. No liability is affected hence, stays at zero.
Let's continue with transaction #2:
Transaction Assets = Liabilities + Capital
1. Owner's investment 20,000.00 = + 20,000.00
2. Loan from bank 30,000.00 = 30,000.00 +
In transaction #2, the company received cash. Thus, the value of total assets is increased.
At the same time, it incurred in an obligation to pay the bank. Therefore, liabilities are increased.
The liability in this case is recorded as Loans Payable. Notice that the accounting equation is still
equal (balanced).

Let's add transaction #3:


Transaction Assets = Liabilities + Capital
1. Owner's investment 20,000.00 = + 20,000.00
2. Loan from bank 30,000.00 = 30,000.00 +
1,000.00
3. Purchased printers = +
(1,000.00)
The company acquired printers, hence, an increase in assets. However, the company used
cash to pay for the printers. Thus, it also results in a decrease in assets. Transaction #3 results in
an increase in one asset (Service Equipment) and a decrease in another asset (Cash).
For those who are new to accounting format: The parentheses "()" around the 1,000 amount
above means "minus" or "less".
Liabilities and capital were not affected in transaction #3. Still, the equation in this
transaction is equal. It resulted to a zero effect in both sides.
At this point, the balance of total assets is P50,000. The combined balance of liabilities and
capital is also at P50,000.

To help you better understand how the accounting equation works and stays in balance,
here are more sample transactions and their effects to the accounting equation.
In addition to transactions 1, 2 and 3, assume the following data:
4. Rendered services and received the full amount in cash, P500
5. Rendered services on account (receivable from customer), P750
6. Purchased office supplies on account (payable to supplier), P200
7. Had some equipment repaired for P400, to be paid after 15 days
8. Mr. Alex, the owner, withdrew P5,000 cash for personal use
9. Paid one-third of the loan obtained in transaction #2
10. Received customer payment from services in transaction #5
The transactions will result to the following effects:

Transaction Assets = Liabilities + Capital


1. Owner's investment 20,000.00 = + 20,000.00
2. Loan from bank 30,000.00 = 30,000.00 +
1,000.00
3. Purchased printers = +
(1,000.00)
4. Service revenue for cash 500.00 = + 500.00
5. Service revenue on account 750.00 = + 750.00
6. Supplies on account 200.00 = 200.00 +
7. Repair of equipment = 400.00 + (400.00)
8. Owner's withdrawal (5,000.00) = + (5,000.00)
9. Payment of loan (10,000.00) = (10,000.00) +
750.00
10. Collection of accounts = +
(750.00)
Balance 36,450.00 = 20,600.00 + 15,850.00
Examples Explained
4. The company received cash for services rendered. Cash increased thereby increasing
assets. At the same time, capital is increased as a result of the income (Service Revenue).
As we've mentioned in the Accounting Elements lesson, income increases capital.
5. The company rendered services on account. The services have been rendered, hence,
already earned. Thus, the P750 worth of services rendered is considered income even if
the amount has not yet been collected. Since the amount is still to be collected, it is
recorded as Accounts Receivable, an asset account.
6. Office supplies worth P200 were acquired. This increases the company's Office Supplies,
part of the company's assets. The purchase results in an obligation to pay the supplier;
thus a P200 increase in liability (Accounts Payable).
7. The company incurred in P400 Repairs Expense. Expenses decrease capital. The amount
has not yet been paid. Thus, it results in an increase in total liabilities.
8. The owner withdrew P5,000 cash. Cash is decreased thereby decreasing total
assets. Withdrawals or drawings decrease capital.
9. One-third of the P30,000 loan was paid. Therefore, Cash is decreased by P10,000 as a
result of the payment. And, liabilities are decreased because part of the obligation has
been settled.
10. The P750 account in a previous transaction has been collected. Therefore, the Accounts
Receivable account is decreased and Cash is increased.

Notice that every transaction results in an equal effect to assets and liabilities plus capital.
The beginning balances are equal. The changes arising from the transactions are equal.
Therefore, the ending balances would still be equal.
The balance of the total assets after considering all of the above transactions amounts to
P36,450. It is equal to the combined balance of total liabilities of P20,600 and capital of
P15,850 (a total of P36,450).

Here are the examples where you will see the effects of every transaction to the major accounts.
