credit side
Usage examples
  • The terms "debit" and "credit" both have Latin roots. The term debit comes from the word debitum, meaning "what is due." Credit is derived from creditum, defined as "something entrusted to another or a loan." Debit and credit signify actual accounting functions, both of which cause increases and decreases in accounts depending on the type of account. Simply using "increase" and "decrease" to signify changes to accounts won't work. An increase in liabilities is a credit side because it signifies an amount that someone has loaned to you and which you used to purchase something (the cause of the corresponding debit in the assets account).
