You need to look at the circumstances and determine what type of accounts are increasing and what's decreasing.

An increase in the following accounts are:

Assets - debits

Liabilities - credits

Capital - credits

Revenue - capital

Expenditure - debit.

Everything will fall under one of those five types of accounts.

Is the double-entry accounting transaction always equal?

Yes. In double entry accounting every number is entered twice. There are two columns, debits and credits. Every dollar is debited against one account and credited to another account. This makes it easier to keep track of where the money is going. Then when an accountant checks the company books against the cash on hand and against the bank accounts it makes it real easy to find out if fraud is occurring. A problem comes when a company uses the same accountant year after year and the person stealing the money bribes the accountant not to report the fraud. Then the system does not work.


What does rtr atm his ret mean on a bank statement?

This is a refund for a historic ATM transaction. I got one of these from Natwest. According to the letter I received, I tried to take out £10 in 2006, didn't get the cash but my account was debited. So they have refunded it 6 years later, along with a 'goodwill payment' of £1.67. Part of their mission to become 'Britain's most helpful bank', apparently.

What is intercompany transactions?

These are accounts that are set up to post between companies. For instance, one company pays health insurance for it's self and another company. A portion of the payment is an expense of that company and a portion of that payment is due to the first company from the second company. So, instead of the two companies having to pay each other for every transaction every day.
