I have a question about how to log a journal entry.
I have a piece of furniture that I want to enter as a fixed asset. It was paid by owners capital/investment.

Would this be a double journal entry?

What are my dr/cr entries?

Thanks!

Very useful, mayank.

If I'm interpreting what happened correctly, you'd debit whatever asset account you want to use (like Furniture & Fixtures is a common name) and credit the owner's capital account. This isn't any different than the owner investing cash. An asset is an asset.

Entry will be passed by Debiting Furniture A/c [Increase in assets - Dr] and crediting Capital A/c [Increase in Capital - Cr]
I have followed the Modern Concept of Accounting.
