    closing entries using Income statement


    Hey guys

    All right so that's my worksheet and I am in a periodic system, so basically there's no COGS. In the homework it said

    "Record closing entries in the general journal. Note that under the periodic inventory system, a Cost of Sales account is not used. Therefore, all accounts that are used to calculate Cost of Sales need to be recorded in the closing entries."

    I don't get this bit.

    Oh and another question, in Closing entries using income statement do I just say in the worksheet

    Dr Income statement 46704
    Cr Sales Revenue 46704

    then

    Credit Income statement 46704 ?

    thanks a lot =)
