Explanation:
The trial balance is prepared at the end of a counting period after all the accounts have been closed. The trial balance captures all the debits on one side and credits on the other. If the trial balance does not balance, it signifies errors in the general ledger. A balanced trial balance does not guarantee the absence of errors.
In preparing a trial balance, accountants usually follow the order of accounts as they follow each other as per the general ledger. It is not a requirement that either debits or credits come first.
Answer:
The correct option is a) Gross profit and ending inventory.
Explanation:
The inventory technique is a method of accounting for calculating the value of an inventory. The approach calculates the ending inventory balance by comparing the inventory cost to the merchandise price.
There are three methods for valuing inventory whic are FIFO (First In, First Out), LIFO (Last In, First Out), and WAC (Weighted Average Cost) (Weighted Average Cost). The gross profit and ending inventory are affected differently by each of these costing methods.
This implies that the selected inventory costing method impacts gross profit and ending inventory.
Therefore, the correct option is a) Gross profit and ending inventory.
