Hi I had a question a homework question on how to zero out an account. I had to zero out a WIP account in june by credting the WIP account for $582.17 and debiting a accounts payable account by 582.17. I accidentally credited the WIP account 582.17 and then debited the same WIP account for 582.17. How would I fix this so the account zeros out.
