You may read in your book about what the normal balance of an account is. The normal balance will be either a debit balance or a credit balance depending on what type of account it is. The normal balance is always the increase side because technically there should be more increases in the account than decreases. This may be summarized using the debit/credit rules on the prior page. In any asset or expense accounts the normal balance is a debit. In any liability, stockholders’ equity, or revenue accounts the normal balance is a credit. To determine the normal balance of an account you first need to determine what type of account it is. After the account type is determined then you should easily be able to determine what the normal balance should be.
