Posting is the process of transferring general journal entry information to the seneral ledger. Fach number you post should be properly Cross-referenced Helpful Hints by: recording the general journal page number (ex. G1, G2, etc.) in the Posting Reference (Post. Ref.) column of the general ledger (transaction descriptions in the "item column may be eliminated". AND recording the general ledger account number in the Post. Ref. column of the general journal * ACCOUNTING CYCLE STEP 4: Calculate the ending balance in each general ledger account if you haven't already done so, and prepare an unadjusted trial balance. No working papers have been provided for this step, so you may either handwrite your solution or prepare it electronically. If you prepare your solution electronically, be sure to bring a hardcopy to class. Helpful Hints Determine the balance in each account by subtracting the sum of the debits from the sum of the credits. The resulting difference (the updated account balance) is a debit if the sum of the debits is greater than the sum of the credits. Alternatively, the resulting difference (the updated account balance) is a credit if the sum of the credits is greater than the sum of the debits. Prepare an unadjusted trial balance by listing each general ledger account title with its balance in the order that it appears in the general ledger) according to the format presented in Exhibit 2.14 in your textbook. Note that the debit and credit columns must each be summed, and the sums must be equal. If debits do not equal credits, refer to the "Searching for and Correcting Errors' section in Chapter 2 of your textbook for additional assistance. Check Figure: Debits and credits must each equal $20,345.

Matt deposits these funds into the BRAP checking account. goes to Play It Again Sports and pays $2,100 to purchase gently used canoes, paddles fejackets, ziplining harnesses, etc. to be used the park. (These items will collectively be identified as Equipment in the accounting records Matt purchases a large attractive sign for the new park at a cost of $650. The sign maker knows Matt's Family. So she agrees to extend credit to BRAP for BRAP pays $250 to create, print and distribute flyers to all the local schools and youth organizations to advertise that the new park will open on September BRAP pays a total of 55.650 to have the child-appropriate obstacle and zipline courses constructed that Same day, inspection and certification are included in these amounts. These two courses will collectively be identified as "Activity Courses in the accounting records.) Matt recognizes the fact that he could be sued if a child gets hurt in the park, SO BRAP pays $660 to purchase 4 months of general liability insurance for coverage from September 1 through December 31. Matt establishes a 30 day credit account at a local business on behalf of BRAP. He immediately uses the account to purchase $420 in various supplies for the park. BRAP sells tickets for $15 each to local school children for admission to the park on that same day (All ticket sales by BRAP are cash sales unless otherwise noted.) BRAP pays for the sign purchased on August 15. August 28 september 1 September 7 September 10 September 14 September 17 The Boys and Girls Club of Rutherford County brings 90 disadvantaged children to BRAP, Matt agrees to accept a reduced price of $11.00 per ticket and wait 30 days to receive payment, which will be paid by the Club rather than by the children. September 18 BRAP pays $60 to have the grass mowed at the park. September 22 BRAP sells 45 tickets for $15 each for children in two local Boy Scout troops for admission to the park on that same day. September 24 BRAP receives a check from the Boys and Girls Club of Rutherford County in the amount of $325 to partially pay for the tickets purchased on September 17. September 25 BRAP pays wages in the amount of $380 to two of Matt's friends who worked on days when children were in the park to assist the children with the various activities. September 28 Mattis satisfied that BRAP has more than a sufficient amount of operating cash in its checking account, so he writes himself a company check for $700 and deposits it into his own personal checking account. September 30 BP receives a check in the amount of $360 from Ms. Hughes, a local teacher, to purchase tickets for her 2 graders. She plans to bring them to BRAP for a field trip on October 3. Helpful Hints Journalizing is the process of recording each transaction in the general journal in chronological (date) order using appropriate account titles and properly characterizing the increase or decrease to each account as either a debit or a credit, based on the account s normal balance. Debit lines are listed first. credits account titles are signty Indented, and DEBIT AMOUNTS MUST EQUAL CREDIT AMOUNTS for each and every individual transaction Chapter 3 (Accounting Cycle Steps 5, 6, & 7) ACCOUNTING CYCLE STEP 5: Adjust the app information.

(Note: use separate Accumulated Derreciation accounts for each asset, but report the total amount of Depreciation Expense in a single account.) September 30 Accrue wages of $150 ccrue wages of $150. The employees earned these wages in September, but will not be paid until October Helpful Hints While there are no source documents to prompt us to record adjusting entries, adjusting entries are an important element of matching revenues and expenses to provide GAAP-compliant financial statements. Each adjusting entry affects an income statement account (revenue or expense) and a balance sheet account asset or liability). so omitting an adjusting entry or making an error in the amount of the adjusting entry makes the income statement, the statement of owner's equity, and the balance sheet incorrect. Some helpful hints to keep in mind as you write adjusting entries: As previously noted, each adjusting entry affects an income statement account and a balance sheet account. No adjusting entry affects the Cash account. ACCOUNTING CYCLE STEP 6: Recalculate the general ledger account affected by the adjusting entries, if you haven't already done so, and then balance consistent with the format of your undiusted trial balance. This new identified as an adjusted trial balance to reflect the fact tep, so you may effect of all adjusting entries. No working papers have adjusting entries.

If you prepare your sou electronically, be sure to bring a hardcopy to class. ledger account balances for all accounts one so, and then develop another trial balance. This new trial balance is act that the account balances now include the Helpful Hints Remember to list your accounts in financial statement order, just as you did for your unadjusted trial balance. Check Figure: Debits and credits must each equal $20,743. ACCOUNTING CYCLE STEP 7: Use the accounts and balances on the adiusted trial balance to prepare financial statements. Refer to Exhibit 3.14 in our textbook for an illustration of how the numbers from an adjusted trial balance flow to the financial statements. No working papers have been provided for this step, so you may either handwrite your solution or prepare it electronically. If you prepare your solution electronically, be sure to bring a hardcopy to class. Helpful Hints The income statement is always prepared first because we need the output of the income statement (net income) to prepare the second financial statement, the statement of owner's equity. The statement of owner's equity must be prepared second because we need the output of the statement of owner's equity (the ending capital account balance) to prepare the third financial statement, the balance sheet. The fact that all three financial statements tie together in this way is referred to as articulation Recall that the accounts on the adjusted trial balance are listed in financial statement order (assets, liabilities, owner's equity, revenues, and expenses), so the accounts you need for each statement are effectively grouped together. Each account is reported on only ONE financial statement. Specifically note the difference between the format of a trial balance and a balance sheet. Many beginning accounting students frequently confuse these two due to the naming similarity, but they are two very distinct documents! Check Figures: Net income = $1,024 Total Assets = $18,354 Chapter 4 (Accounting Cycle Steps 8 & 9) ACCOUNTING CYCLE STEP 8: Prepare journal entries to close all the temporary includes journalizing the closing entries in the general lournal and posting them to the app general ledger accounts, using the cross-reference procedure described in Step 3. general journal and general ledger that you used in the previous steps. lose all the temporary accounts. This step al journal and posting them to the appropriate ce procedure described in Step 3. Use the same Helpful Hints The temporary accounts to be closed are the revenue accounts, expense accounts, and the owner's withdrawal la ka, drawing) account. Note that the owner's capital account before the closing process does not equal the ending owner's capital we reported on the statement of owner's equity and on the balance sheet. The closing process, when properly completed, will update the owner's capital account balance in the general ledger so that it reconciles with the ending owner's equity balance we reported on the financial statements. The closing process will also reduce all temporary accounts to a zero balance clearing the way for the accumulation of revenues, expenses, and withdrawals for the next accounting period. Revenue accounts must be DEBITED to remove their credit balances and expense accounts and the owner's withdrawal account must be CREDITED to remove their debit balances. ACCOUNTING CYCLE STEP 9: Prepare a post-closing trial balance. Just like the unadjusted trial balance and the adjusted trial balance, this trial balance is simply a listing of the general ledger accounts and their balances in financial statement order with the debit and credit columns summed. See Exhibit 4.6 in your textbook for an example of a post-closing trial balance. No working papers been provided for this step, so you may either handwrite your solution or prepare it electronically. If you prepare your solution electronically, be sure to bring a hardcopy to class Helpful Hints This trial balance confirms that general ledger debits and credits are equal before beginning a new accounting cycle. Given that all the temporary account balances were reduced to zero during the closing process, the temporary accounts may be omitted from this trial balance. Check Figure: Debits and Credits must each equal $18,502. ACCOUNTING CYCLE STEP 10: Preparing reversing entries is an optional step in the accounting cycle that will not be covered in this course.
