Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for illustrating accounts, recurring transactions, and relationships between accounts related by recurring transactions, and facilitating management of accounts and recurring transactions. [Background technology]
[0002] The present invention utilizes the natural law that "a transaction has two aspects: receipt and payment."
[0003] The present invention is based on the known technical idea that "money is a social means of exchanging commodities (meaning tangible or intangible goods exchanged through transactions, excluding money; the same applies below) for other commodities."
[0004] The present invention is based on a novel technical idea that "value is produced through the creation of goods, passes through money, and disappears through the consumption of goods."
[0005] The present invention is based on the novel technical idea that "money is a pure crystallization of value," which is derived from the known technical idea that "commodity is a crystallization of social substance refined by the distillation method."
[0006] The present invention is based on the novel technical idea that "value has a flow path," which is derived from the known technical idea that "money has a path."
[0007] The present invention is based on the novel technical idea that "value flows from right hand to left hand" which is derived from the known technical idea that "in double-entry bookkeeping, the debit side is regarded as a column for recording receipts, and the credit side is regarded as a column for recording payments" and the artificial agreement regarding the positional relationship between the debit and credit sides in double-entry bookkeeping.
[0008] The present invention is based on a novel technical idea that "an account is a mechanism for storing value or goods, which is created in the middle of or at the end of a flow path of value." [Prior art documents] [Non-patent literature]

[0012] Application No. 2023-001764 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0013] In addition to credit cards, various cashless payment methods are becoming more and more common. This has led to a phenomenon known as "cluttered value flows," where people are unable to keep track of what accounts they have (bank accounts, securities accounts, credit cards, electronic money accounts, point accounts).
[0014] To streamline the flow of value, it is necessary to provide a way to depict accounts, ongoing transactions, and the relationships between accounts that are related by ongoing transactions. [Means for solving the problem]
[0015] The present invention comprises a symbol (1) indicating an account, a symbol (2) indicating a continuing transaction, and an agreement regarding the arrangement of the symbols.
[0016] The agreement regarding the placement of symbols described in the previous paragraph is an agreement in which, with account A holding currency as the base, ongoing transactions B relating to deposits into account A or account C holding goods resulting in deposits to account A are placed on the right side, and ongoing transactions D relating to withdrawals from account A or account E holding goods resulting in withdrawals from account A are placed on the left side. Effect of the Invention
[0017] The present invention promotes improvement of the quality of life of consumers and simplifies accounting management for businesses, thereby contributing to the development of industry. [Brief description of the drawings]

Claims
[Claim 1] A method of illustrating the relationships between accounts, continuing transactions, and accounts related by continuing transactions, and facilitating the management of accounts and continuing transactions, comprising a symbol (1) indicating an account, a symbol (2) indicating a continuing transaction, and an agreement regarding the arrangement of the symbols (where Account A holding currency is taken as the base, and continuing transaction B relating to a deposit into Account A or Account C holding goods resulting in a deposit to Account A is placed on the right side, and continuing transaction D relating to a withdrawal from Account A or Account E holding goods resulting in a withdrawal from Account A is placed on the left side).
