In accounting, the structure, nature, and classification of transactions form the core of financial recording and analysis, ensuring accuracy in financial statements and enabling insightful business decisions. Every financial transaction impacts the accounting equation—the fundamental relationship between assets, liabilities, and owner’s equity—and this equation provides the foundation for interpreting a company’s financial position.
