These five foundational principles keep financial data reliable across all businesses.

• Revenue recognition: income appears in accounts when the sale occurs, not when money is received.
• Matching principle: expenses must be recorded in the same period as the revenues they helped generate.
• 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: all records should rely on factual proof rather than personal opinion.

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

Accounting lessons in Luton typically cost about £20/h per hour.

Your final cost will depend on these variables:

• The student's level (secondary school, undergraduate, or professional)
• The tutor's expertise and track record (chartered accountant, degree holder, or industry professional)
• How often you meet and for how long (regular lessons, exam prep bursts, or ad-hoc help)
• Lesson format (face-to-face, remote, or hybrid)

Some tutors provide a free first lesson so you can test the fit before committing.

At its core, accounting follows one simple equation: what you own equals what you owe plus what you have invested.

This equation means that every debit has an equal credit, so the books always balance.

For example, if a company borrows £10,000, both its assets (cash) and liabilities (loan) rise by £10,000.

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