Closing
&
Financial
Statements
Temporary
accounts
include
revenue,
expenses,
and
dividends.
These
accounts
must
be
closed
at
the
end
of
the
accounting
year.
The
closing
entries
are
used
to
reset
the
balances
of
temporary
accounting
to
zero
so
they
are
ready
for
the
next
accounting
period.
Temporary
accounts
are
accounts
with
zero
balance
at
the
start
of
the
financial
period
and
close
at
the
end.
The
temporary
accounts
are
revenues
and
gains,
losses
and
expenses,
and
drawing
or
income
summary
accounts.
Some
issues
that
may
arise
if
a
corporation
were
to
miss
closing
some
accounts
or
skip
the
process
entirely
would
be
inaccurate
financial
statements.The
income
statement,
balance
sheet,
and
statement
of
retained
earnings
may
not
accurately
reflect
the
corporation's
financial
position
and
performance.
The
most
important
way
for
a
corporation
to
ensure
closing
was
done
properly
is
through
a
Post-Closing
Trial
Balance.
The
Post-Closing
Trial
Balance
includes
all
of
the
permanent
accounts
and
their
balances.
This
happens
after
the
closing
entries.
