*Decrease an asset and decrease a liability.

A good e.g. would be payment of an amt you owe your creditor. When you make payment, your cash is decreased and your liability also decreases since the guy has been paid. You’d:

Dr A/cs payable

Cr Cash

*Increase an asset and increase owner’s equity

An e.g. would be if the owner puts in cash as equity. Remember the equation A = L + E? You’d:

Dr Cash

Cr Owner’s equity
