Check My Work1. Identify what account is used and then what type of account is used for each transaction. Remember that each transaction will have at least one debit and one credit.

6. The adjusting entries are prepared directly from the adjustment data or from the information in the Adjustments columns of your work sheet. Double-check to make sure your adjusting entries affect both an income statement account and a balance sheet account. When posting these entries to the ledger accounts you combine the adjustments with the unadjusted balances for each account, such that debit balance and debit adjustments are added to obtain a new debit total. Likewise credit balances and credit adjustments are added to obtain a new credit total. You will take the difference between a credit unadjusted amount and a debit adjustment to obtain the adjusted amount. Likewise, you calculate the difference between a debit unadjusted amount and a credit adjustment to obtain the new adjusted ledger amount.

9. In preparing closing entries, recall that (1) revenue accounts are debited for their balances and expense accounts are credited for their balances. The difference between the revenue and expenses is either credited (revenues exceed expenses) or debited (expenses exceed revenues) to the retained earnings account, and (2) the retained earnings account is debited for the balance of the dividends account.

Check My Work2. Remember as you prepare your 4-column accounts: For each debit and each credit recorded in the journal, identify what account is used and transfer the amount from the journal to the appropriate ledger account.

Double-check to make sure your adjusting entries affect both an income statement account and a balance sheet account.

Check My Work7. Once your accounts have been updated with the adjusting entries postings, recall that you prepare the adjusted trial balance to verify the equality of debits and credits after the adjustment process and summarize the adjustment effects. The adjusted trial balance totals should be equal; if not, an error has occurred and you will want to retrace your steps in the adjustment and posting process.

Check My Work10. Recall that the purpose of a post-closing trial balance is to verify that the ledger is in balance at the beginning of the next period and if temporary or nominal accounts have been accurately closed out, only permanent balance sheet accounts will remain and should agree with the accounts and amounts listed on the end of period balance sheet, so be sure to compare the post-closing trial balance with the balance sheet.
