Does debits increase asset and increase liabilities?
Debits increase assets but decrease liabilities. In accounting, when you debit an asset account, it signifies an increase in that asset.

Does An expense paid with cash would result in an equal decrease in liabilities and owners equity?
When an expense is paid with cash, it results in a decrease in cash assets, leading to a reduction in owners' equity since expenses reduce net income. However, it does not directly affect liabilities unless the expense was previously recorded as an obligation. Therefore, the decrease in owners' equity does not equate to a decrease in liabilities; only the cash asset is reduced.

If your total liabilities decrease by 46000 and owners equity increased by 60000 during the same period what is the amount and increase or decrease of the total change in assets?
To determine the change in total assets, we can use the accounting equation: Assets = Liabilities + Owners' Equity. If total liabilities decrease by $46,000 and owners' equity increases by $60,000, the net change in assets would be a decrease of $46,000 plus an increase of $60,000, resulting in a total increase of $14,000 in assets.
Is decrease in liabilities is credit?
No, liabilities have a normal credit balance, that means that increases are also credit, and that decreases are debit. Please refer to the link provided for debit and credit rules.
What will a decrease a revenue and a increase liability?
I can think of nothing that will do that in one transaction. Revenue generally does not effect your liabilities. Revenue is an Owners Equity account and most transactions in revenue effect that, not liabilities. (there is one exception and it is explained later on.)Expenses decrease revenue, which in turn decreases retained earnings which effects owners equity.Dividends Paid decrease retained earnings, which in turns also effects owners equity.The only time any "revenue" has an effect on liabilities is if it is an "unearned" revenue. An unearned revenue is a liability, however, it "increases" your liabilities and increases your assets at the same time. Once the unearned revenue is "earned" it then increases your "revenue" and you decrease your liability.
What is a decrease in a liability?

This can occur through various means, such as repaying a loan, reducing accounts payable, or settling a liability through negotiation.

It is often reflected in the balance sheet as a decrease in total liabilities.
Is a liability account a debit or a credit?
Remember the basic accounting equations Assets = Liabilities + Owners Equity (Stockholders Equity) Assets increase with a debit Liabilities as well as Equity increase with a credit Liabilities have a credit balance (meaning you must credit the account to "increase" it and debit the account to "decrease" it) this makes liabilities a credit.
