Add together the amount credited to Cash for each transaction with a credit to the Cash account. Credit entries are indented on the general ledger. In the example, assume you have a debit of $25 to Supplies and a credit of $25 to Cash. This means you paid $25 for supplies in cash. Assume you have another $50 credit to Cash for a total of $75.
Body mass index is the standard metric for determining who is normal-weight, overweight and obese, but BMI is not an accurate measure of fat, and doesn't explain the causes of poor health, scientists argue in an editorial today (Aug. 22) in the journal Science.
Research on obesity has shown that a calculation called BMI can be an accurate measure of body fatness. BMI stands for body mass index. While BMI does not measure body fat directly, it corresponds pretty closely to direct measures of body fat. Therefore, BMI can be considered an alternative for direct measures of body fat. BMI is determined by a person's height and weight. Because the BMI calculation requires only height and weight, it is inexpensive and easy to use. BMI is used as a method of screening for weight categories that may lead to health problems (see Health Effects of Obesity).
