@@andytoss8063 i understand that from my comment you could think that im a spoiled kid who doesnt appreciate that he can go to university. Honestly if i read the comment i mightve thought exactly the same thing. But my university really has quite the pride issue. Its a university that has a pretty good reputation (not worldwide but in germany) and i feel like they kinda try to convince you that theyre really a difficult university to graduate from (graduation rate is below 40% for business administration which is quite unusual). In class this manifests itself by explaining stuff in a overcomplicated way, which can be helpful for understanding the relations between the diffrent concepts we learn after a couple of semesters, but not at the start. This is especially true with math, but accounting is affected by it too. It feels like theyve created a culture that rewards making things very difficult for students. And with a university that has such a great reputation (bla bla) i feel like not being able to explain double entry bookkeeping in 6 hours is embarrassing to say the least. I think i dont really have the right to be set off by this, because afterall the government pays for our education (id be really pissed if i lived in america tho)
Thanks for the explanation. I was really struggling with Debit vs Credit. For some reason my mind wants to think of credit as a positive instead of a debt. This cleared things up.
I spent 4hrs yesterday trying to get my head around how to record such things for my 1st intro to accounting tutorial. With help from a friend i managed to work it out but i was still confused with the Cr and Dr. I watched this after my lect and tute and it made much more sense. Wish I found this yesterday!! Thank you for your clarity

This video is fantastic!! So refreshing to here a video where someone take this time to explain without being dry and dull!! Great stuff show them how its done!
Always understood the basic principal but never could get my head around the rules. Your explanation is excellent! Will have to revisit a few times to get it cemented but thank you so much 🙏
Thank you, Daniel. I am not an accounts student, and have never studied accounts but I needed this as I need to study solicitors' accounts which I wasnt too thrilled about. But you made this bearable and understandable. Thank you!!
Thank you so so so much! I’ve been racking my brains for ages trying to understand this in depth. Your explanations are so clear and the layout of the business example you gave made so much more sense than the way I’ve been taught. Thank you!
THANK YOY SO MUCH MAN I JUST STARTED YEAR 10 ACCOUNTING AND WAS KINDA LATE TO MY CLASSES BECAUSE I SWITCHED FROM PHYSICS TO ACCOUNTING AND UR VIDEO HELPED ME A TON BECAUSE I COULDNT UNDERSTAND STUFF IN MY CLASS AT ALL THANK YOU SO F'ING MUCH LOVE U DUD
You are a natural. Thank you. I am thinking of starting with aat level 2 and was looking around to see if I would like it or if I understood. It all seemed so complicated until just now when I saw your video. Your way of explaining, omg I haven't started studying, and I understood every piece of information. You are great! 👍🏻
Good explanation! Would've made sense to show the closing balance after the three transactions (sum of debit and credit are balanced) - as this is the whole purpose of the double entry system
Dear Daniel thank you so much for your wonderful explanation! It is the best one that I've ever had, perfectly fits with my way of understanding. I was almost hopeless, I was thinking that something is wrong with me:) By reading the comments I realised I'm not the only one. Thank you, guys & good luck to all of us:))
You explaned this debit/credit fantastically.... I saw various videos in You tube but your explanation was crisp and clear....... 👍👍👍👏👏👏 Hope I can do my assignments 😆
U r right... But this video was sent by my foreign friend n it's a new subject for me so I was searching for a Indian user comment cuz dummy me was thinking that every country has their own method for accountancy
WTHHHHHH I UNDERSTAND NOWWWWW AND MY TEST IS TOMORROW LITTERALLY YOU TAUGHT ME WHAT. MY TEACHER TRIED TO TEACH MEE IN A SEMESTER!!!!!! THANKYOU SO SO MUCHHH
Ah... thank you for being so clear.... I must confess, that although I now know where to put what.... it still doesn’t make logical sense to me....using the word ‘credit’ to take something out... or debit an account to increase it....but at least I know where to put things... even if I don’t fully grasp it 😬 monkey see, monkey do.
This video lost me at around 9:17, why must there be a separate account for the premises and creditors instead of leaving it as a credit from the bank?
this video is so good, you can explain a concept in 10 minutes which my university cant explain in 6+ hours

Of Course. That's what Universities are good at.
no
Lol 😆
most lecturer are retired bankers etc etc ... they are good in their job but they can't seem to explain what they know to their students =/
You've basically explained what I couldn't understand my tutor explaining for the last 6 months. Thank you!
you should probably pay more attention to class

I was suffering from not understanding these, but now I'm good at this 🙂☠️
This is why all field personnel can summarize a situation fluidly
Very well explained. Precise and short.
Waooo this is amazing lecture I never ever watch thank uuu😘😘

Thank you Daniel! Great explanation

Sooooo!!!! good I was able to create a personal formula to remember it. thanks.
Congratulations for such a brilliant video!!!
Thanks but why did you record on both sides question two?

This video is a great introduction to the topic.❤
This video lost me at around 9:17, why must there be a separate account for the premises and creditors instead of leaving it as a credit from the bank?
@1:28 Capital is also a liability (google)
A liability is something a person or company owes to other entity.
Thank you for really helpful and most didactic tutorial video.

Thank you for this masterpiece I learned a lot so now I can pass that test this so easy to understand

Very helpful video, would be great if someone did the full A level Specification!
The Accounting Equation is
Assets = Liabilities (resources provided by third parties) plus owners' capital.
Thank you very much. This video was very informative
