Why liability on left and asset on right?

This is inaccurate, neither liability nor assets dictate right or left of anything. However, if you are speaking of the Balance Sheet (one of many examples), Assets are actually listed on the Left Column (as they maintain a Debit Balance) while liabilities will be listed in the Right Column (as they maintain a Credit Balance) To decide where the entry goes remember what Debit and Credit actually mean. Debit literally means Left Column or Left side, while Credit is just the opposite and means Right Column or Right Side. Because Assets maintain a Debit Balance, all entries that increase the asset will be listed in the "left" column, while all entries that will decrease the asset will be listed in the "right" column. For example, you purchase Supplies for $1,000 using CASH. Your entries will increase Supplies with a debit and decrease cash with a credit. Supplies (dr) $1,000 (left side) Cash (cr) $1,000 (right side) It is just the opposite for Liabilities, as they maintain a Credit balance. Take the same transaction above but instead of paying cash you purchase the $1,000 in supplies on Credit, this gives you a liability (something you owe) You will still increase your asset of supplies with a debit, but this time you will Credit your Account Payable.

What is the difference between debit balance and credit balance?

This is really not as simple as writing debit balance is or credit balance is:In accounting Debit literally means the left side and credit means the right side. The difference between a debit balance "account" and a credit balance "account" is:Debit balance accounts increase with a debit and decrease with a creditCredit balance accounts increase with a credit and decrease with a debitAssets maintain a debit balanceLiabilities and Owners Equity maintain a credit balanceThe above answer refers to accounting, however, I noticed that you also put this in Credit and Debit cards: using a bank debit or credit card is the opposite of the view you see doing accounting.On a Credit card statement for example, a credit balance would mean that the credit card company is "crediting" you with a certain amount, meaning you do not owe that amount anymore. A debit would be a rise in the balance you "owe them".
