1. Sale of stock to owners of

Post (Copy) the transactions to the General Ledger Accounts:

The T-Accounts is the simplest form of a general ledger account. Each account transaction has to be copied into the correct ledger account one at a time. At the end of this process, a total must be run for each individual account with the final balance being placed on the normal balance side of each individual account. Prepare a Trial Balance:which is a list of all accounts in the ledger with each accounts ending balance. This will be prepared in two-column form and each column will be totaled down (footed) with the final totals matching.

company 2. Payment of Dividends 3. Purchases and prepayment of large assets for cash 4. Purchases and prepayment of large assets on account (credit) 5. Purchase of items small for cash 6.

HOW TO CREATE A WORKSHEET FOR A CORPORATION

13

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS


Always start with the name of the company, the title of the statement, and the period for which the statement is being prepared. In the case of a worksheet, it is for the month, year or fiscal period ending and the date in which that period ended.
Trial Balance:

1. From the general ledger, list all accounts even if they do not have a balance because you want them in order. The order is assets, liabilities, stockholders equity, revenues, and expenses. Place the balance before adjustments in the trial balance column. Assets, withdrawal, and expense amounts are placed in the debit column while liabilities, stockholder s equity and revenues amounts are place in the credit column. 2. Make sure to total these two columns and that they balance (end amounts are the same) before you continue with the worksheet. Double underline the totals once they balance. If for any reason, they do not balance, check your math and check for errors in your general ledger.
Adjustments:

3. In the next two columns (debit and credit), place the end of the period adjustments. You may want to journalize these adjustments before placing them on the worksheet. In this example we have adjustments a through g. a. $600 in revenue that has been earned but not yet recognized by the Company

Accrued RevenueSupplies

Accounts Receivable Pet Supplies Revenue

600 600

b. Supplies on hand were $500 therefore $300 in supplies was used during the period.

c. Depreciation on the building was $500 for the period.

500 500

d. Depreciation on the equipment was $250 for the period.

250 250

e. Prepaid rent that was used up during this fiscal period was $700.

f. Salaries and Wages earned but not yet paid for this fiscal period amounted to $600.

Accrued ExpenseSalaries

g. Revenues received prior to the work being performed that were earned but not yet recognized was $150.

Unearned Revenues-Pet Supplies Revenue

Unearned Pet Supplies Revenue Pet Supplies Revenue

150 150

Adjustments are based on items that experience changes due to the passage of time. These adjustments fall into the categories of: Prepaid Expenses for Short term assets, Prepaid Expenses for long term assets-Depreciation, Prepaid RevenuesUnearned Revenues, and Accrued Revenues-earned but not yet recognized revenues, and Accrued Expenses-expenses incurred but not yet recognized. 4. After you have placed the adjustments in the adjustments columns total these twocolumns to make sure they balance. Don t forget to double underline the totals.
Adjusted Trial Balance:

1. For each line item in the assets, dividends, and expenses, you will take the amount from the trail balance account then add the debit and subtract the credit from the adjustments columns. The other way is to post the adjustments to the general ledger and then list the balances after adjustments. 2. For each line item in the liabilities, stockholder s equity, and revenues, you will take the amount from the trail balance account then subtract the debit and add the credit from the adjustments columns. Again, the other way is to post the adjustments to the general ledger and then list the balances after adjustments. 3. Now total both columns in the adjusted trial balance section of the work sheet these amounts should be the same if not recheck your math and make sure everything was added and subtracted correctly. Double underline the totals at the bottom.
16

Income Statement:

1. For this section of the worksheet, you will bring over from the adjusted trial balance columns the revenues to the credit column. 2. Bring over the expenses from the adjusted trial balance columns to the debit column of the income statement section. 3. Total these two columns they will not match. Subtract the smaller amount from the larger amount this will give you the value of either the net income or net loss. 4. If the amount is, net income then place the different between the two totals on the debit side under the total and then on the next line down add the two amounts, which should equal the credit amount. Place the credit balance on the same line as the new debit balance. If the amount is a net loss, place the different in the credit column and then total the amounts. Then double underline both totals.
Balance Sheet:

1. For this section of the worksheet bring over from the adjusted trial balance all of the assets, liabilities and stockholder s equity accounts. You will place the assets and dividend amounts in the debit column and the liabilities, stockholder s equity accounts in the credit column for this section. 2. Total both columns in this section they will not balance. Then bring over the net income and place it in the credit column of this section. If it is a net loss, place it in the debit column then total again, in which case both columns should balance to the same amount. Double underline both columns.

Note:

The final balance in the balance sheet section of the worksheet will not match the balance on your balance sheet due to the lack of a stockholders equity statement.
