## What it means for a shop owner

Do not assume a credit means profit or is good. On the cash account a credit means money going out, and on the sales account a credit means an increase. Learn the direction by account type.

## A worked example

You sell for 800 in cash. Cash is debited 800 and sales are credited 800.
