The basic elements
The two basic elements of any organisation are
what it owns and what it owes.

What it owns are the organisation’s economic resources. These economic


resources are used to help the organisation generate revenues. In accounting,
these economic resources are called ASSETS.
Examples of assets for an organisation are:
• Cash
• Inventory
• Accounts Receivable
• Land & Buildings
• Motor Vehicle
• Furniture & Equipment

The basic elements – what
it owes
What it owes are the organisation’s sources of financing for the economic
resources.

The main source of financing usually comes from EQUITY. Equity indicates the amount of
financing provided by owners of the organisation.

Examples of equity for an organisation are:


• Owner’s Equity / Proprietorship for a sole trader business
• Partnership Funds for a partnership business
• Shareholders Equity for a company business

The next source of financing comes from debt. Debt is the result of the organisation
purchasing goods, services or assets on credit. Debt also results from loan borrowings. Debt
is given the term LIABILITIES.

Examples of liabilities for an organisation are:


• Accounts Payable
• Loan Payable

The accounting equation
what it owns = what it owes

Assets = Liabilities + Equity


A Balance Sheet (Statement of Financial Position) shows that the
assets of an organisation should equal to its liabilities plus equity.

This is why the accounting equation is also called a balance sheet


equation.

number of different ways:
•Asset emphasis:
•Assets = Liabilities + Equity
•Liability emphasis:
