Definition of journal entry

A journal entry is a written record of a transaction in accounting. It includes equal debits and credits and sometimes an explanation of the transaction. For example, if a company buys supplies for $100, they would make a journal entry debiting the supplies account for $100 and crediting the cash account for $100.

Another example of a journal entry is when a person enters a building to commit a crime. This is called an unlawful entry and is a criminal offense.

Journal entries can also be used in legal contexts, such as when a work is deposited with the Register of Copyrights to secure its protection.
