In the trial balance, all the accounts with debit balances are listed before the accounts with credit balances.

Business
1 answer:
Jet001 [13]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

False

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.

The comparative financial statements for Prince Company are below:
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

It is increases by 0.155 times

Explanation:

As we know that    

Current ratio = Current assets ÷ Current liabilities

where,

Current assets = Cash + account receivable + inventory

So in year 1, the current ratio is

= ($7,000 + $18,000 + $34,000) ÷ ($17,000)

= ($55,000) ÷ ($17,000)

= 3.47 times

And, in year 2 , the current ratio is

= ($4,000 + $14,000 + $40,000) ÷ ($16,000)

= ($58,000) ÷ ($16,000)

= 3.625 times

Therefore, it is increases by 0.155 times

slava [35]

Answer:

Debit cost of goods sold $40,000

Explanation:

As with the details of inventory we have:

Opening value of inventory = $50,000

Purchases = $100,000

Thus, total inventory = $150,000

On the closing date we have the balance of inventory in hand = $110,000

Therefore, cost of goods sold = Total inventory - Closing

= $150,000 - $110,000 = $40,000

Cost of goods sold is an expense, and shall be debited.
