The Accounting Cycle

– Produces the four basic financial statements
– Gets the general ledger ready for the next
accounting period

Accounting Cycle Steps
• Record journal entries from transactions

Unadjusted Trial Balance
• A listing of individual
accounts, usually in financial
statement order.
• Ending debit or credit
balances are listed in two
separate columns.
• Total debit account balances
should equal total credit
account balances.

The Unadjusted Trial BalanceIf total debits do not equal total credits on the
trial balance, errors have occurred . . .
in preparing balanced
journal entries,
in posting the correct dollar
effects of a transaction,
or in copying ending balances
from the ledger to the
trial balance.

Depreciation Adjustment
The accounting
concept of
depreciation involves
the systematic and
rational allocation of
the cost of a long-
lived asset over
multiple accounting
periods it is used to
generate revenue.
This is a “cost
allocation” concept,
not a “valuation”
concept.

Prepare the Adjusted Trial
Balance
• After we’ve completed and posted the
adjusting entries to the general ledger
accounts, we prepare another trial balance
• We confirm again that the debit balances equal
the credit balances
• Basis for preparing the financial statements

Closing the Books
Even though the
balance sheet
account balances
carry forward
from period to
period, the
income statement
accounts do not.
Closing entries:
1. Transfer net income
(or loss) to Retained
Earnings.
2. Establish a zero
balance in each of the
temporary accounts to
start the next
accounting period.
![Page 21: The Accounting Cycle...Accounting Cycle Steps •Record journal entries from transactions •Post journal entries to the general ledger •Prepare unadjusted trial balance •Adjust](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041523/5e2fc76b617aee3d26798aa1/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
