2. Adjusting Entries
Adjustments are analyzed and planned on a work sheet. However, these adjustments must be journalized so they can be posted to the general ledger accounts.
Journal entries recorded to update general ledger accounts at the end of the fiscal period are called adjusting entries.
Adjusting entries are recorded on the next journal page following the page on which the last daily transactions for the month are recorded.

7. Permanent accounts Permanent Accounts
Accounts used to accumulate information from one fiscal period to the next are called permanent accounts.
Permanent accounts are also referred to as real accounts.
Permanent accounts include the asset and liability accounts and the owner’s equity capital account. The ending account balances of permanent account for one fiscal period are the beginning account balances for the next fiscal period.

8. Temporary accounts Temporary Accounts
Accounts used to accumulate information until it is transferred to the owner’s capital account are called temporary accounts.
Temporary accounts are also referred to as nominal accounts. Temporary accounts include the revenue, expense and owner’s drawing accounts plus the income summary account. Temporary accounts show changes in the owner’s capital for a single fiscal period.
Therefore, at the end of the fiscal period, the balances of temporary accounts are summarized and transferred to the owner’s capital account. The temporary accounts begin in a new fiscal period with zero balances.

9. Closing entries
Journal entries used to prepare temporary accounts for a new fiscal period are called closing entries.
The temporary account balances must be reduced to zero at the end of each fiscal period. This procedure prepares the temporary accounts for recording information about the next fiscal period.
Ex. The net income for the next fiscal period would be difficult to calculate because amounts from several fiscal periods remain in the accounts. Therefore, the temporary accounts must start each new fiscal period with zero balances.
To close a temporary account, an account equal to its balance is recorded in the account on the side opposite to its balance.
For example, if an account has a credit balance of $3,565.00, a debit of $3, is recorded to close the account.
