Is equipment debit or credit?
equipment is a long-term asset and assets increase with debits and decrease with credits. So if you buy equipment, you will debit equipment and credit cash if you bought it with cash. If you bought the equipment with a promise to pay (I was trying to avoid using the phrase "bought on credit" because it might make things confusing), you will credit accounts payable in liabilities because they increase with credit (basically the amount of money you are "liable" for just went up! Good news is that you have the equipment you needed/wanted) In the end, Assets = Liabilities + Stock Holder's equity has to balance out!
