You are right about DEBIT MEANS DECREASE IN CAPITAL CREDIT MEANS INCREASE IN CAPITAL. BUT Appling this rule in all the cases is not correct.Because there are three types of Accounts which have there own rule
1. Personal (Capital or Loan A/c may be Cr or Dr. or in the name of any person)
2. Real (Sales purchase)
3. Nominal (Income & Exp.)
I donot think to explain these because in my opinion aboe examples will clear you the whole position. And every accounts has its own rule which are as under
1. "DEBIT THE RECEIVER AND CREDIT THE GIVER" (FOR Personal)
2. DEBIT WHAT COMES IN CREDIT WHAT GOES OUT ( FOR REAL)
3. DEBIT ALL EXPENSES AND LOSSES CREDIT ALL INCOME AND GAINS ( FOR NOMINAL)
Now come to your query that raising of loan is how a increase in capital. please refer the above rule and you will get that it is personal account. means "DEBIT THE RECEIVER AND CREDIT THE GIVER". as per this rule we will credit the bank (Our creditor) because he is the loan giver
I hope you the clarification will satisfy If some more help is needed just contact me
As per this
Liabilities like (loan funds+own funds) As per Business Entity Concept (proprieter different and Business different)
Business having seperate identity.
As per loan term.
loan from bank is like a loan transaction involving with real and personal accounts
for real account rule we are writing as
DR what comes in
CR what goes out.
As per personal Account rule
DR the receiver
CR the giver
| liabilities | assets |
| Loan from Bank | Cash |
as per Personal Account rule we credit the giver
as per Real Account rule we Debit the what comes into company.
and as per this increasing in liabilities simultanious increase in assets.
while we analyzing trnsaction we need to search for how many accounts involved what is that nature also....
Thanks
