    Please do not double post. It is confusing, actually takes up more of our time... and long problem, if someone takes the time to answer your one post, only to discover someone else already answered the other. I've merged them back into one.

    Why did you take your accounts out of order? The way they were listed is the proper order and should not be messed with.

    (The instructions told you what pages of the journal to put specific entries on? WOW!)

    First off, the general rule of trial balances that don't balance is that you have math off somewhere. If anything you do along the way is not in balance to start with or gets added wrong or gets copied wrong, the whole thing is out of balance. It cannot be stressed enough how important it is to be careful!

    This will be caused by things like:
    *your entry doesn't balance to begin with (and then you're screwed the rest of the way)
    *you don't post something, post it incorrectly or double post it
    *you calculate the balance of an account wrong
    *you copy something wrong to your trial balance or leave something out
    *you added up your trial balance incorrectly

    All of these errors throw off the math. Always work your way backwards, checking each of those things. Checking postings last, cause that's a royal hassle to check.

    Doing an entry incorrectly, as long as it balances, will not throw off your trial balance. You have things wrong that are not throwing you off balance, but they are still wrong.

    The problem is that no one has any idea why you don't balance without seeing all of your work, because we don't know what you did to get there. If we have the problem, we can know what balances are off, but not why.

    All of your expenses are correct (except depreciation - see below). The office supplies, food supplies and prepaid insurance are correct. The rest is incorrect.

    There are only two things I know absolutely, positively what you did wrong. The fishing boat -- you didn't buy depreciation - you bought a fishing boat. Think about it. You also bought it "on account." Since your accounts payable is very close, I have a feeling you may have entered that two different places and that could be helping throw you off. The other one is having put all of your wages into wages payable. They were paid. It says "paid" - take that literally.

    I don't know why the rest is incorrect since I can't see what you did. In other words, like I said from the very start, no one can ever know what is wrong with a trial balance without seeing all of your work. I can only see things that are very obvious (like putting a fishing boat into depreciation).

    You can upload a file if you have it in a file (like Excel or whatever). You have to go into the advanced view and then manage attachments.

    2nd Deposited Registration Fees 401 35,000 (Credit)
    Cash 101 35,000 (debit)
    Be careful of account names. You use the name of the appropriate account, not a description of what happened. "Deposited registration fees" is a description of what happened that describes both the cash and the fees. i.e. "Deposit" is implying that you brought in cash, which gives you your debit of cash, and then the "registration fees" tells where the deposit came from. That's what you need to put the entire entry together. But it's not an account name. In fact, "deposit" has nothing at all to do with the proper account, which is Registration Fees. (It could just as easily have gone into receivables and you would still use Registration Fees for the credit. A "deposit" means cash, not revenues.) I know you posted it in the right place cause your total in that account is correct... but you can't post to "deposited registration fees" when there is no such account name. That is a description of the whole transaction.

    You've done this "description" instead of account name numerous places. I am not going to mention them all -- you need to look for them. You need to follow your list of accounts that was given.

    2nd Accum- Exp Fishing Boats 181.1 60,000 (Debit)
    Account Payable 202 60,000 (Credit)
    I've already pointed out that you bought a fishing boat, not depreciation. How do you buy depreciation?

    10th Purchased Food Supplies (Acme) 524 8,200 (debit)
    Account Payable 202 8,200 (Credit)
    "Purchased" is an action, not an account name. Just "food supplies" like you did on the 3rd.

    10th Paid Wages to Guides 219 10,000 (debit)
    Cash 101 10,000 (Credit)
    There is no account called "Paid Wages to Guides." What is the account name?

    30th Paid Accounts Payable (Acme) 202 32,700 (debit)
    Cash 101 32,700 (Credit)
    Again, "paid accounts payable" is describing the action. In fact, the "paid" part is the part that tells you it is cash, not that it is payables. The "on account" part is what tells you it's payables. The account name is accounts payable.

    The only actual incorrect one at this point is the fishing boat, as long as you correct the others to actual account names and not descriptions.

    However, the reason you're out of balance is that you have not included the prepaid insurance, the fishing boat or the capital into your trial balance. You have the entries for them (though the boat is incorrect) but you haven't included them in your account balances.

    You also have adjusting entries already in your accounts, but have not presented the actual entries for these, nor are they reflected in your trial balance. You must make sure you unadjusted trial balance comes out first, before doing adjusting entries. Take things one step at a time.

    Also, please stop posting everything in 10 different places. It's getting really confusing trying to track all this back down. It's all one problem and it needs to all be in one thread so people know what is what, instead of trying to trace one thread back to another thread of the same problem.

    As for the file, I don't know. When you go to the upload thing, it has a list of file types it will accept and also the limit of size. So it may either be a file type it doesn't like or it's too big. You'll have to check it.
