Revenue: Accounts that track the money a business earns from sales and other activities. Expenses: Accounts that track the money a business spends on operational costs, such as rent, salaries, and supplies. Assets: Accounts that track the value of the company's physical assets, such as cash, investments, and property. Liabilities: Accounts that track the company's debts and obligations, such as loans and accounts payable. Equity: Accounts that track the company's net worth, including retained earnings and capital contributions.

These accounts are recorded in the accounts receivable section of the chart of accounts.
