What to Focus On

  • Adjustments help in showing true profit or loss.
  • Income must be recorded when earned, and expenses when incurred.
  • Items outside the trial balance affect both the accounts and the balance sheet.
  • Closing stock is goods left unsold at year end.
  • It is valued at cost price or realisable value, whichever is less.
  • Outside trial balance: Trading Account and Balance Sheet.
  • Outstanding expenses belong to the current year but remain unpaid.
  • They increase the related expense.
  • They are liabilities in the Balance Sheet.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Closing stock shown in the trial balance should still be added to the credit side of the Trading Account.

Outstanding expenses given in the trial balance must be added again to the expense in the final accounts.

Prepaid expenses given in the trial balance should be deducted from the expense account in the Profit and Loss Account.
