    You need to close the Owner's Drawing Account, the Revenue aoounts and the Expense Accounts.

    The difference between the Revenues and expenses is known as retained earnings and is a part of the owner's equity.

    Only your balance sheet accounts will appear in a post-closing trial balance because they are permanent accounts.

    First you close your revenue, so you do the following journal entry:
    Debit your Revenue Accounts for their amounts
    Credit Income Summary Account for the amount of the debits

    Next you will close out your Expense Accounts, by doing the following journal entry:
    Debit Income Summary Account for the amount of the credits
    Credit your Expense accounts for their individual amounts

    Finally you clos out your Income summary account to the Retained Eranings Account, by the following journal entry:
    Debit or Credit your Retained Earnings Account for the amount
    Credit or Debit the Income summary Account for the difference in the Income summary Account account to zero balance the account.

    To close your drawing account you will Debit the Owners Equity account for the amount in the drawing account and you will Credit the Drawing account for the amount in the account.
