    As a layman’s understanding ‘debit’ means positive(+) , and ‘credit’ means negative
    (-). Such a debit and credit should be equal to each other. You can get the word ‘Debit’ and ‘Credit’ as of Business or Accountancy subjects. Actually, according to the rule of Debit & Credit (based on Accountancy’s concept & principles), debit and credit are expressed as follows:
    1. Debit the receiver and credit the giver.
    2. Debit what comes in and credit what goes out.
    3. All expenses and losses are debited and all incomes and gains(Profit) are credited.
    More or less , the whole Double Entry System of the Accounting Method is based on ‘ Debit & Credit’.
