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)
