Explanation of Solution
The T-shaped accounts are balanced at regular intervals and the time period for balancing depends upon the practice of the organization, say daily, weekly and monthly. When balancing, usually we add all the line items on a particular side for both the sides and we will see which side has more amount. The side with more amount is said to be the balance side of the account and the difference between the amounts is said to be the balance of the account.
Conclusion:
Thus, T-accounts are prepared and their balances are determined.
