The accounting equation of the business is based on the double-entry aspects the accounting entries. The books always complete the double-entry aspects of every debit must have a credit.
Therefore, based on this, there always exists an accounting equation which states that the sum of all the assets is equal to the sum of all outside liabilities (referred as total liabilities) and
The above equation always holds good irrespective of the number of transactions handled by the business. Therefore, we can conclude that whenever there is one item (i.e., assets or total liabilities or owner’s equity) is missing for any reason.
