How much is the total amount for reversal at the start of the next fiscal year relating to these adjusting entries? (The reversing entry/ies serve/s as the solution for this problem)
Solution:- Reversing Enteries for the beginning of the year—
Particulars | Debit | Credit |
---|---|---|
Rent Income Dr. | 3,000 | |
To unearned rent income | 3,000 | |
Accrued utilities expense. Dr | 4,000 | |
To utilities expense | 4,000 | |
Therefore, total amount to be reversed according to the year ending adjusting enteries = 7,000
The reversing enteries are only prepared for accrued incomes, accrued expenses, unearned revenues and prepaid expenses. Thus, no reversing entry is prepared for Depreciation and Baddebt expenses.
