8-2 Recording Closing Entries

Permanent Accounts-accounts used to
accumulate info from one fiscal period to
the next (real accounts)
Assets
Liabilities
Capital
Temporary Accounts-accounts
used to
accumulate info until it transferred to the
owner’s capital account (nominal accounts)
Revenue
Expenses
Drawing
Income Summary
New Fiscal Period

Permanent accounts maintain the balance
they had from the previous fiscal period

Temporary accounts always begin a new
fiscal period with zero balances
Need for Closing Temporary Accounts


Closing Entries-Journal entries used to
prepare temporary accounts for a new
fiscal period (zero out temporary accounts)
To close a temporary account, an amount
equal to its balance is recorded in the
account on the side opposite of its balance
Example


If rent expense has a debit balance of
$4,411 then the account must be credited
for the same amount in order to close the
account out.
Since you need an equal debit, the Income
Summary account will be used.
Need for Income Summary Account



Used only to close out temporary accounts
Used to summarize the closing entries for the
revenue and expenses
Does not have a normal balance side



When revenue is greater than total expenses (net
income) Income Summary account will have a
credit balance
When total expenses are greater than revenue (net
loss) Income Summary has a debit balance
Because Income Summary is also a temporary
account, it too must be closed out (into capital)
Income Summary
Debit
Total expenses
Credit
Revenue (greater than expenses)
(Credit balance is the net income.)
Debit
Total expenses Income Summary
Debit
Total expenses (greater than revenue)
(Debit balance is the net loss.)

are listed

REVIEW

Four closing entries:




Close income statement accounts with credit
balances (revenue)
Close income statement accounts with debit
balances (expenses)
Record net income or net loss by closing
Income Summary into Capital
Close drawing account into Capital

After closing entries are posted, the
owner’s capital account balance should be
the same as shown on the Balance Sheet
for the fiscal period
Review

The only accounts listed on the PostClosing Trial Balance are those with
balances after closing entries have been
posted (assets, liabilities, capital)


Info needed for journalizing the adjusting
entries is obtained from the work sheet’s
Adjustments columns
Info needed for recording the closing
entries is obtained from the work sheet’s
Income Statement (revenue & expenses)
and Balance Sheet (drawing) columns



The ending account balances of permanent
accounts for one fiscal period are the
beginning account balances for the next
fiscal period.
Temporary accounts must start each fiscal
period with a zero balance
Income summary has no normal balance
