a.	Journalize and post the necessary closing entries. Omit explanations.
b.	Prepare a post-closing trial balance as of December 31.

Requirement a. Journalize and post the necessary closing entries. Omit explanations.

First, journalize the necessary closing entries (CJE). (Record debits first, then credits. Exclude explanations from any journal entries.)

CJE1: Start by closing revenues.

Account	December 31, 2018

CJE2: Close expenses for the period.

Account	December 31, 2018

CJE3: Close income summary.

Account	December 31, 2018

CJE4: Close dividends.

Now, post the closing entries to the t-accounts to obtain the post-closing balances. T-accounts have been opened using the balances from the adjusted trial balance. Use the closing entry numbers as posting references to post each closing entry to the relevant accounts, then compute the ending balance of each account. Label the ending balances with End.

Bal.

(For accounts with a $0 ending balance, select "End.

Bal."

and enter "0" on the normal balance side of the t-account.)

Review the closing entries you prepared above.

Requirement b. Prepare a post-closing trial balance as of December 31. (Exclude any accounts with a zero balance from the trial balance.)
