The closing process is closing your temporary accounts i.e. income statement accounts to the balance sheet.

So: You close out your revenues to the Income Summary account, then close out your expense accounts to the Income Summary account.

Next you close out your Income Summary account to Retained Earnings.

Next you close out your dividends or drawings account to your Owners Equity account or Owners Capital account.

Finally for your post closing trial balance will list your balance sheet accounts only with their debit and credit balances, with a total balance of your debits and credits, which must equal.
