<h1> Double Entry Bookkeeping</h1>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>A Double Entry bookkeeping system stores both values, and
|
||||
requires that all transactions balance:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Double entry states that <tt> value1+value2+value3+ ... =
|
||||
0</tt> where each value is recorded in a different account.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p> A value is</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>value=exch-rate*amount (for currency accounts) <i>
|
||||
value=price*num-shares (for stocks/mutual-funds)</i></li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><i>Thus, buying a widget in Japan and using US Dollars to
|
||||
pay for it would appear thus:</i></p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
<i> <b>SpendAcct:</b> (an ordinary bank/cash acct valued in
|
||||
USD)</i>
|
||||
<pre>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
A double entry system stores both values (and makes teh transaciton balance):
|
||||
|
||||
double entry states that value1+value2+value3+ ... = 0
|
||||
where each value is recorded in a different account.
|
||||
A value is value=exch-rate*amount (for currency accounts)
|
||||
value=price*num-shares (for stocks/mutual-funds)
|
||||
|
||||
Thus, buying a widget in japan and using dollars to pay for it would appears
|
||||
like so:

||||
|
||||
SpendAcct: (an oridnary bank/cash acct valued in USD)
