Account layout for a personal business

[trythis]

I have a similar problem.

I set it up like so:

AP Assets Personal
__+accounts receivable
__+assets current
___++bank accounts 
__+etc
AB Assets Business
__+assets current
___++bank accounts 
__+etc
EB expense Business
__+ etc
__+ etc1
__+ etc2
EB Expense Business
__+ etc
__+ etc1
__+ etc2
Equity
__+business equity
__+opening balances
IP income Personal
__+ etc
__+ etc1
__+ etc2
IB Income Business
__+ etc
__+ etc1
__+ etc2
LB Liabilities Business
__+ etc
__+ etc1
__+ etc2
LP Liabilities Personal
__+ etc
__+ etc1
__+ etc2
The abbreviations keep them in order and make it easy to type in the account
selections when categorizing
IP Income Personal etc


I only have one Equity account because I don't have LLC's or corporations
that I have to keep separate, its all my equity.  My business stuff is all
sole proprietorship and it would be nutty to have separate gnucash accounts.
I have no accounting training, so this might be a terrible way to keep it
straight, but I cant imagine trying to send money to and from separate
gnucash files for business purposes.
