Unit # 5 – Revenue & Expense Accounts
To date we have learned about various types of Asset and Liability accounts, but only one Owner’s Equity Account (Capital).
We will be introduced to 3 new accounts Revenue Expenses Drawings
Unit # 5 – Revenue & Expense Accounts
Before we start, we must know how these accounts operate.
First off, they are all new accounts under Owner’s Equity (giving us a total of 4 accounts) Capital Revenue Drawings Expenses
Unit # 5 – Revenue & Expense Accounts
To review Revenue is money received from sale
of goods or services. Expenses are the cost to sell goods
(and earn Revenue) and operate the business.
Unit # 5 – Revenue & Expense Accounts
So what is the “Drawings” Account? The Drawings Account is the account
that keeps track of any (or all) the money an Owner “withdrawals” from the business.
It is listed under the Owner’s Equity section because it effects “Net Worth” of the company.
Unit # 5 – Revenue & Expense Accounts
The Balance Sheet A = L + OE
Assets Liabilities Owner’s Equity (including Capital & Drawings)
The Income Statement NI = R - E
Revenue Expenses
Unit # 5 – Revenue & Expense Accounts
Debits & Credits with respect to Revenue, Expenses, and Drawings Accounts
Ok, so we already know there is an increase in Capital we Credit (use the RHS) of the T-Account.
A decrease we Debit (use the LHS).
Unit # 5 – Revenue & Expense Accounts
Revenue acts the exact same as Capital. Increase = Credit (RHS), Decrease =
(Debit) LHS of T-Account This is because Revenue has a
positive effect on Capital. Think about it, the money more you
make by selling goods or services, the greater the company Net Worth.
Unit # 5 – Revenue & Expense Accounts
Therefore, Expenses act the opposite, because they lower Net Worth. Increase = Debit (LHS) Decrease = Credit (RHS)
Drawings act the same as Expenses because it is money being taken out of the company (lowering Net Worth) Increase = Debit (LHS) Decrease = Credit (RHS)
Unit # 5 – Revenue & Expense Accounts
Lets put it all together under the Owner’s Equity section.
Capital & Revenue we Credit (use the RHS to increase), Debit (LHS to decrease).
Drawings & Expenses, we Debit (use the LHS to increase), Credit (RHS to decrease).
Unit # 5 – Revenue & Expense Accounts
Tarantino Hint: Notice the “C” & “R” from Capital &
Revenue form “CR”– These accounts are Credited (CR) to increase (RHS).
Notice the “D” & “E” from Drawings & Expenses form “DE”– These accounts are Debited (DR) to increase (LHS)
Unit # 5 – Revenue & Expense Accounts
One more thing about the Drawings Account It is known as a “Contra Account” (This is
your first, we will have more) because they act contrary to the account they are married with.
Drawings is “married” to Capital. Because owner uses the Capital Account to
invest money into the business – The owner uses the Drawings Account to take money out of the business for personal use.

The Report Form Balance Sheet Now this is the exact same thing as the
Balance Sheet we have already learned except for one thing.
Normally we list like this: Assets on the LHS, Liabilities & Owners Equity on the RHS.
Now we list like this:Assets=Liabilities+Owners Equity
Unit # 5 – Revenue & Expense Accounts
The Owner’s Equity Account on the Balance Sheet!
RULE!!! ALWAYS Prepare the Income Statement before the Balance Sheet! This is because as Revenue increases (or
decreases) their will be a change in the Owner’s Equity section of the Balance Sheet (Net Worth of the Business)
