Double entry system of accounting records both aspects of a transaction. Hence it is able to provide accurate information as to profit, liabilities and assets. While single entry system of accounting does not record all transactions in certain cases. Sometimes it records both aspects but still only in some aspect. So, single entry system is less reliable than double entry system of book keeping.
