This problem may be done and over... but it's something you need to know anyway.

Your book should have examples of a trial balance, or at least an example of something showing the order of the accounts. I see you've got a bad debt allowance in there, meaning you're at least that far into things. So it's past time to learn how these accounts are organized.

They should go: assets, liabilities, equity, revenue and expense. Can you get them divided down that far? You've also got sub-categories involved. That is, both current and plant assets, both current and long-term liabilities.

If you have at least some idea of how these are organized, it would be nice to show what you've got thus far.
