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.
In Double entry accounting system both the debit part as well as credit part of transaction should be equal otherwise accounting transaction is not complete properly.
they must be equal on both sides
There is always two entries at minimum. Remember the accounting equation... Assets = Liabilities + Owners Equity (Stockholders Equity) For every action that must be an equal and opposite reaction. Simply put for every Debit there must be an equal Credit. So there has to be at least two entries, one debit and one credit.
It tallies because our accounting is based on double entry book keeping. So debit and credit side are always equal.
balance sheet get balance due to the accounting principle Dual aspect. In it each and every transaction has debit and credit having equal amount. Debit the gains is equal to the Credit the losses. one of the gain is acquired then, there must be any losses. due to this principle it's getting balance.

Total assets are equal to total liabiliteis and owner's equity because it is the basic accounting equation which is as follows: Total Assets = total liabilities + Owner's equity if this accounting equation is not balance it means there is some mistake in preparation of financial statements.
