Accounts receivable is a debit.Answer:Accounts receivable is an asset and therefore maintains a debit balance. This is an account listing what a person or company owes you, or money that you expect to receive. Since it is an asset (all assets maintain a debit balance) it means to increase the account you debit it and to decrease it (when a payment is made by the customer) you credit it.Assets = debit balance (increase with debit, decrease with credit)Liabilities and Owners Equity = credit balance (increase with a credit, decrease with a debit)(GAAP)
the debit will be to the accounts receivable because a debit increases it. the offset account in this entry is usually a revenue account. so therefore a credit to revenue.
