ASSET ACCOUNTS HAVE WHAT TYPE OF BALANCE

Open in App

Solution

Debit balances can be found in assets, expenditure, losses, and the owner’s drawing account. With a debit input, their balances will rise, and with a credit input, their balances will fall. Credit balances are often seen in liabilities, revenues and sales, profits, and owner equity and shareholders’ equity accounts.
