The Adjusting Process
Under the accrual basis, at the end of the
accounting period some of the accounts need
updating for the following reasons:
1. Some expenses are not recorded daily.
2. Some revenues and expenses are incurred
as time passes rather than as separate
transactions.
3. Some revenues and expenses may be
unrecorded.

Effect of Errors on Adjusted Trial Balance
For each of the following errors, considered
individually, indicate whether the error would cause

error would cause the adjusted trial balance totals to
be unequal, indicate whether the debit or credit total
is higher and by how much.
