An interesting spin on this double-entry debate can be read at:

A quote:
"When you examine bookkeeping from the point of view of the user's
goals, rather than merely examining the familiar, manual tasks, you find
that making two entries isn't a goal. If the business person could get
reliable accounting with one entry, she'd do it. If she could do it with
no entries she would! The point isn't the method, it is the objective."
