The traditional rule of accounting which some people refers as the "Golden Rule of Accounting" is here below:

1: debit the receiver (debtor) and credit the giver (Creditor), 2: debit what comes in and credit what goes out and 3: debit all expense and loss and credit all income and gains.

 

 

The complete details of this rule can be found in Classical books of Accounting (FRANKWOOD Theory of Accounting, Meigs & Meigs ACCOUNTING)
