- A Service fee earned is revenue account. Since the amount of revenue is closed and transferred to K’s capital account. Here, K Consulting earned an income of $40,000. Therefore, it is debited.
- Salaries Expense, Rent Expense, Insurance Expense, Utilities Expense, Supplies Expense, Depreciation Expense, Advertising Expense, JU Capital,and Miscellaneous Expense are expense accounts. Since the amount of expenses are closed to Income Summary account. Therefore, it is credited.
- Owner’s capital is a component of owner’s equity. Thus, owners ‘equity is debited since the capital is decreased on owners’ drawings.
- Owner’s drawings are a component of owner’s equity. It is credited because the balance of owners’ drawing account is transferred to owners ‘capital account.
