I learnt DEAD CLIC which was fantastic.... but I was also informed of another one: PEARLS.
PEA = Purchases, Expenses, Assets – Debits
RLS = Revenue, Liabilities, Sales – CreditsMAAT, AATQB, FIAB, MICB PM.Dip.
Completed AAT in March 2020
Currently Studying: CIMA 'Operational Level'0 -
I think the other way of thinking about it is: Has the money gone to something or come from something. (from the business perspective)
Taking DEADCLIC which is what I was taught initially.
You put money into an expense to pay it.
You put money into your assets to store it (banks, FAs etc)
You put money into the owners drawings.
You take money from a lender (Liabilities)
You take in income
You get capital from the owner.
This also means when you reverse one of those like pay a loan you put money into the loan on the debit side.AAT Level 4, MAAT
