Accounting Cycle:

Accounting cycle refers to the process of recording a business transaction in the books of accounts. This cycle concludes when the financial statements are prepared.

T-account:

• T-account is the form of the ledger account, where the journal entries are posted to this account. It is referred to as the T-account, because the alignment of the components of the account resembles the capital letter ‘T’.
• The components of the T-account are as follows:

1. 1. a) The title of the account
   2. b) The left or debit side
   3. c) The right or credit side

Adjusted Trial Balance:

An adjusted trial balance refers to the final trial balance resulting after posting the adjusting entries at the end of the period.

Closing Entries:

Closing entries are those journal entries which are passed to transfer the balances of temporary accounts to the permanent accounts. These are passed at the end of the period, to transfer the final balance.

Post-closing trial balance:

After passing all the journal entries and the closing entries of the permanent accounts and then further posting them to each of the respective accounts, a post-closing trial balance is prepared which consists of a list of all the permanent accounts. A post-closing trial balance serves as an evidence to prove that the balance of the permanent accounts is equal.
