Should every income have a corresponding asset?

For the first entry, yes, pretty much. If a company receives money from Income that is recorded as income and cash, cash being the asset account. If the company records the income as a recievable, meaning the customer hasn't paid yet, then the account would be an Accounts Receivable, also an asset account. Though income is recorded on the Income Statement and not the Balance Sheet, the revenue from said income becomes an asset, adjusting entries later on the books will take care of anything else, such as merchandise, inventory, cost of goods sold (if a merchandising company) or other expenses related to said income.


Money you loan as an expense?

No, it is neither an expense to you or income to the recepient. Loans are investments, even in a personal sense, a balance sheet, not income statement item. The (presumably cash/money) asset is offset by having an asset of another type....normally a receivable or investment ...it just isn't cash. (The borrower receives cash asset and has a corresponding liability of the payable). The income, presumably interest, on the loan is income. If the loan/investment isn't paid, and meets the qualifications for being a bad debt, the amount not repaid is an expense.
