The work book or books mean books of accounts and keeping implies maintaining in proper form and order. Thus bookkeeping may be defined as the art of recording business transactions in books in a regular and systematic manner. It has been defined by different experts as:

"The science and art of correctly recording in books of accounts all those business transactions that result in the transfer of money's worth."

"The art and science of recording business transactions in such a systematic way as a trader may know the result of his trade at the end of a certain period and may also prove the accuracy of such record."

"The science and art of correctly recording business dealings in a set of books with a view to having a permanent record of transactions and the financial result thereof."

It should be noted from the above definitions that bookkeeping primarily deals in the art of recording transactions in books.

Any dealing between two persons or things in a transaction. It may relate to purchase and sale of goods, receipt and payment of cash and rendering of services by one party to another. Transaction is of two kinds - cash transaction and credit transaction. When cash is paid or received as a result of an exchange, the transaction is said to be a cash transaction. When the payment or receipt of cash is postponed for future date, this transaction is said to be credit transaction.

Purchases:
