One concept, one record, visible relationships

The graph treats a definition as the start of learning, not the entire product.

Canonical terms and aliases

AR, A/R and trade receivables resolve to Accounts receivable. Aliases do not receive thin standalone pages.

Framework scope

Every representative concept states whether it is general double-entry bookkeeping or uses U.S. GAAP financial-statement context. Tax or governmental meaning cannot be blended silently.

Balanced examples

Every shown journal entry has equal debit and credit totals. A balance check does not certify account choice, recognition, measurement or tax treatment.

Graph direction

Prerequisites are learned before dependents. Comparisons exist only where two concepts are genuinely confused. The same fictional transaction keeps numbers consistent across entries and statements.

Review boundary

Stable concepts still need periodic source and link review. Standards-sensitive content needs a qualified named accounting reviewer before production.
