What is the balancing of an account?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Balancing means that the debit side and credit side amounts are totalled and the difference between the total of the two sides is placed in the amount column as ‘Balance c/d’ on the side having lesser total, so that the total of both debit and credit columns are equal.
When the total of the debit side is more than the total of the credit side the difference is debit balance and is placed on the credit side as ‘By Balance c/d’. If the credit side total is more than the total of the debit side, the difference is credit balance and is placed on the debit side as ‘To Balance c/d’.
