Every accountant applies five key principles to maintain trust in financial statements.

• Revenue recognition: record income when it is earned, not when cash arrives.
• Matching principle: link each expense to the revenue it created for accurate profit measurement.
• Historical cost: the amount you paid for an asset stays on the books until disposal.
• Full disclosure: include every material fact that might influence financial decisions.
• Objectivity: financial data must be based on verifiable evidence like invoices and contracts.

Following them ensures that accounts reflect a true and fair view of a business.

Private accounting tutors in Barking usually charge around £27/h hourly.

This rate can vary depending on several factors:

• Your level of study (secondary school, undergraduate, or professional)
• The tutor's qualifications and experience (chartered accountant, degree holder, or industry professional)
• Session length and frequency (regular lessons, exam prep bursts, or ad-hoc help)
• Lesson format (online via video call, in person at home, or at the tutor's location)

Many tutors offer discounted rates if you book multiple sessions in advance.

Every transaction must keep the accounting equation in balance: Assets = Liabilities + Equity.

In practice, if you increase one side, you must adjust the other side by the same amount.

Selling goods on credit increases both receivables (asset) and revenue (equity) together.

Understanding this rule is the first step to mastering bookkeeping and financial statements.
