Yes, a debit decrease liability and a credit increase liability. if a debtors/customer make the repayment obligation, it will decrease debtors, meaning decrease in liability.
Yes, liabilities has credit balance as normal balance so debit is decreasing the liability.
Records of decrease in a liability is Debit
Increase liabilities = credit Decrease labilities = debit
Liabilities are decreased by a debit entry...typically a cash payment (Dr. the liability; Cr. Cash)
A debit signifies a decrease in any of 3 instances: 1. A liability: such as Accounts Payable 2. Equity: such as Capital Draw. 3. Revenue: a debit to a revenue account decreases it.
A debit shows a asset or expense transaction, and a credit shows a liability or gain. So debit is the sum of money owing and credit is sum of money at someones disposal.

A debit will decrease turnover, liabilities, and equity.
This is a difficult question to answer. I've been going through all transactions I can think of but none that will increase an asset and decrease a liability in the same transaction. Receiving cash payment for an account receivable will increase the asset of cash, but it also decreases the asset of AR. The purchase of equipment or supplies will do increase supplies or equipment but will either decrease the asset of cash or if bought on account will increase liability by increasing an account payable. Remember there's always an equal debit and credit with any transaction. The term debit or credit doesn't indicate which of the accounts are used. You can debit and credit on both sides of the accounting equation in one transaction. Assets increase by receiving money, supplies, property, or equipment, when any of these are increased with a debit then an opposite credit MUST occur. If you receive money for a purchase the asset of Cash increases, but then so does the Owners Equity account of Revenue. (this doesn't have anything to do with liabilities.) A liability is something your company owes, to decrease a liability a company makes a pay out in some form (usually cash), this will also decrease your assets (not increase).
Paying A/P: Decrease in Cash (Asset), Decrease in A/P (Liability)
The exact definition of debit is The amount entered on the left side of the account. Depending on what account a debit is being entered in, makes the difference as to what happens on the Balance Sheet. An Asset that has a debit balance is increased by a debit, thus increasing assets. A liability (which generally has a credit balance) will be decreased by a debit. Hence, debiting assets such as Cash, Accounts Receivable, Supplies, Equipment, etc will increase Assets on the balance sheet. Debiting liability accounts such as accounts payable, notes payable, etc, will "decrease" said liability therefore decreasing liabilities on the balance sheet.
