Accounts relating to properties or assets are called Real Accounts. You have to maintain a separate account for each asset.
As per double entry system, the balances of Real Accounts are not canceled out at the end of the accounting year.
They are carried forward to the next year as the beginning or opening balances of the respective accounts.
Debit = What comes in.
Credit = What goes out.
In accounting, Real Accounts are further classified into tangible and intangible real accounts.
Tangible Real accounts are those that can be physically touched, seen and measured. For example, Machinery Account.
Intangible Real Accounts are those which cannot be touched physically but can be measured in value. For example, Goodwill Account.
