Please post trial balances even if the ending balance amount given below does not match. Much appreciated if all necessary steps are done. Step 2 - Journalize the transactions Record the transactions for Sharpe Inc. in the general journal. There is no journal form provided, you will need to use your own journal forms or print some from my website. You must use a journal form to record the transactions and your journal entries must be hand written. Do not record the adjusting entries just yet, only the transactions through December 31, 2021. Use only the accounts provided. Please refer to the chart of accounts in the Excel file you saved from my website for a list of accounts. Round all amount to the nearest whole dollar.

Step 3 - Post the transactions to the T-accounts Post your journal entries to the T-Accounts in the Excel worksheet you saved from my website. The amounts already in the T-Accounts are the beginning balances and should be included in your balances. You do not need to use a posting reference. Do not add any new accounts, all the accounts you need have already been set up. The account balance will update with each posting. Do not do the adjustments yet! When posting the transactions to the T-accounts, start in the top cell of each T-account for both debits and credits and do not skip any lines.

Step 4 - Prepare a Trial Balance Click on the Trial Balance tab and prepare the Trial Balance. The total of the Trial Balance should be $4,346,028. If your balance does not agree, make any necessary corrections before you proceed.

Step 5 - Prepare Adjusting Entries Record the adjusting entries in the journal after the journal entries you recorded in step #2. Skip a line after the last entry and write Adjusting Entries in the middle of the account column then journalize the adjusting entries. You do not need an explanation, but skip a line between entries. All the adjusting entries should be dated December 31. Post the adjusting entries to the T-Accounts in Excel.

Step 6 - Prepare an Adjusted Trial Balance Click on the Adjusted Trial Balance tab and prepare the Adjusted Trial Balance. The total of the Adjusted Trial Balance should be $4,383,321. If your balance does not agree, make any necessary corrections before you proceed.

Step 7 - Prepare the Income Statement Click on the Income Statement tab in the Excel file to prepare the Income Statement using the amounts from the Adjusted Trial Balance. The Income Statement has been formatted using the outlined cells. Entries should only be made in the outlined cells. The exact number of rows needed are outlined so you should not add any rows or columns to the Income Statement. Net Income should be $672,951.

Step 8 Prepare a Retained Earnings Statement and Balance Sheet Prepare the Retained Earnings Statement and the Balance Sheet the same way you did the Income Statement using the amounts from the Adjusted Trial Balance. Both statements have been formatted with the exact number of rows needed. Entries should only be made in the outlined cells; do not add any rows or columns. Total Assets should be $2,973,019. When printing your reports, please format each sheet to print on one page. Each of the following reports (except the Journal) should each be only ONE page.
