    Sample Trial Balance (format)
    I know how to make journal entries and T-accounts.
    But I don't know the format of trial balances, and I don't know if it's debit or credit.
    Please help. My exam is tomorrow.

    On a T-account the left side is a Debit and the right side is a Credit.

    An Asset has a normal Debit Balance
    Liabilities and Owners Equity are norma Credit Balances.
    Expenses have a normal Debit Balance
    Revenues have a normal Credit Balance.

    See my previous post. I attached an Excel file that shows what a trial balance looks like.

    Just list your accounts with their Debit or Credit balances, then add you Debits and add your credits. Your totals should equal.

    See my other post with the Excel Worksheet. A manufacturing company will have extra accounts listed, but the format for a trial balance will be the same.

    I don't understand the question. The accounts are closed out at the end of the period and transferred to the income account. There is no balance brought down.The income statement is a representation of the balances arranged in a logical manner so that the accounts can be presented
