Why is Accounts payable considered a debit on trial balance?
It is NOT, accounts payable is never considered a debit on any financial statement. Accounts Payable is a liability that a company owes and therefore must maintain a "credit" balance.
Is allowance for bad debts a credit or debit balance?
It is a DEBIT balance. under no circumstances will this account be a credit balance because essentially you are setting aside money to cover A/R that will never be recieved.
Is it better to have a running balance or pay off credit card each month?
As long as your balance is never more than 20% of the credit limit, it doesn't matter.
Why the ballance of the assets is always on debit side in T account?
Assets maintain a Debit balance and therefore any asset with a positive balance will be listed on the "debit" side of the account. The credit side of the T account for assets is used only to DECREASE that asset. For example Cash is an asset account and it's balance is listed on the Debit side, now your company spends "x" amount of dollars, that entry will be listed on the Credit side to decrease the cash account. If at anytime your Debit side of the asset is less than your Credit side it means that you have a LOSS. For example, you have $1,000 in your cash account and you record $1500 (credit) to the account. Your account will be listed as "OVERDRAWN" and will have a Credit Balance of $500, this of course is not acceptable. A company can never have a higher Credit balance than a Debit balance in their assets.

Can a credit card company take away or place a lien on your Florida home if you stop paying the 12K credit card balance and you are not a US citizen and live and work outside the country?
no a credit card company may not take your home away. a creditor can never take anything away if the debt is unsecured such as a credit card. regardless of what anyone posts here, credit card companies cant do anything whatsoever if you stop paying them. your credit is ruined and they call alot, but that's all they can do.
Can a credit card company blemish your credit if your mail was lost and they never contacted you?
Unfortunately, yes - the company sent you notice of a payment due and you did not pay it. If you can prove the notice never received you, then you might be able to avoid late fees and a late payment notice on your credit rating.
You gave a company your credit card as proof of id and they took money without permission?
My guess is that company was a collection agency? Never give anyone your bank info, or credit card info. If the company was a legitimate company you were doing business with and you did not authorize payment dispute the charge with your credit card company.
How can you get the best mortgage rates?
Have pristine credit. The better your credit history is, the lower your mortgage rate will be. The worst things you can do to your credit, in the eyes of a mortgage company: 1) Not pay your bills. This is absolutely the worst thing. 2) Not use credit at all. If you never use credit, the mortgage company can't determine how you act when you do. 3) Not carry a balance. If you get a credit card, make small purchases and always pay them in full at the end of the month, mortgage companies consider that not using credit. 4) Having way too much available credit. If you have many credit cards, the mortgage company will assume you might actually use all that credit. If you DO use it all, you won't be able to pay your house payment.
What is con ed nco?
I don't know who they are, but a company by this same name has made fraudulent charges on my credit card. My credit card company told me they don't have a phone number for them and it's listed as a utilities company. I never pay for my utilities with my credit card.
How do you show a debit balance on a liability account?
You should never have a debit balance in a liability account. Liability accounts maintain a "credit" balance. If a debit balance incurs, it means that the company has paid too much to the account.For example, say I owe Company B $500 on an account payable (liability) and I for some reason pay them $600 instead, that does actually give me a debit balance, however that also means they owe me $100 since I overpaid them.If it's a supplier I order from on a regular basis then I can just leave the balance alone and let it balance itself out with the next purchase, making note about "why" there is a debit balance.However, if it's a company I made a one time purchase from, for example I bought a computer and don't plan on buying another one from the company for a while, it's best if I zero out the balance and move the balance from the liability account into an account receivable (an asset account) and contact that company about the error and a possible refund.
