What would be the effect of outstanding expense on accounting equation?

As we know, in accounting and book-keeping, expenses are debited in order to cause a decrease in the owner's (or stockholders') equity.

NOTE: At the time of payment we deduct it from Liabilities as well as from Cash ( or in JOURNAL ENTRY: we debit Outstanding Expense and credit Cash) ASSETS = LIABILITES + CAPITAL -outst. exp. = -outst. exp. + Nil

Can you deduct stock website membership fees?

Yes, you can deduct them either as an itemized deduction if you are filing a personal return, or if you are treating it as a business you can deduct them as an itemized deduction. The problem is that's not very fun because most people typically take the standard deduction. Maybe you were considering offering business advice, and as such the subscriptions are an expense. So, you could deduct them on a Schedule C. Generally I write mine off as a business expense because I have a business which deals with investments, because if they go as an Itemized Deduction I lose them at some point.
