Credit (Cr.) the Giver
Debit (Dr.) the receiver & Credit (Cr.) the giver are the rules used for personal accounts. When a person gives anything to other person/ firm / organization or to any person, the receiver account will be debited and the giver account will be credited.

Date | Particulars | Amount | Amount | Rule Applied | |
05-Jun-19 | Tutorial Kart A/c | 8,000 | Debit (Dr.) the Receiver | ||
05-Jun-19 | To TMC Dealers A/c | 8,000 | Credit (Cr.) the giver |
In above example transaction, tutorial kart receiving the benefits (debit the receiver), so tutorial kart a/c to be debited. And TMC dealer is gives the beneficial, so TMC dealer account to be credited
Real Accounts

Credit (Cr.) what goes out
Debit (Dr.) what comes in & Credit (Cr.) what goes out are rules for real accounts and applicable on all the assets. In simple terms, if anything comes in to business/ firm /organization than account will be debited and if anything goes out of business than account will be credited.

An asset purchased for cash $4,999, here an asset is coming to firm and firm paid cash of $4,999 (which is going out of business).

Credit (Cr.) all incomes & gains
