  7. Closing Entries All temporary accounts (expenses, revenue, etc…) need to start each new accounting period with a ZERO balance

  8. We already know • Net income or net loss • Calculated from the worksheet and transferred to the Income Statement • From the IS, it’s included in the Statement of Changes of Owner’s Equity • Then listed on the Balance Sheet as the new Capital account • Notice that the capital account from the worksheet and prepared Balance Sheet do not match

  9. We already know Maria Sanchez, Capital from the worksheet = $25,400 Maria Sanchez, Capital from the BS = $26,050 These amounts are different because the temporary accounts need to go through the closing process to bring all the accounts up to date
