- When we added a business transaction to the accounting equation, we showed the change that took place in the specific record.
- This increase or decrease is an important part of our record, but we also want to keep track of the date that a particular transaction takes place.
- Some form of explanation is also helpful, especially if the specific item acquired may not be apparent from the title of the record we maintain for it.
Thus, every business transaction should contain three kinds of information:
- The date of transaction.
- An explanation of the transaction (where necessary).
- The amount of the transaction and its result; whether it represents an increase or a decrease.
