At the end of an accounting period, it is necessary to "close" the temporary accounts which means to make their balances zero. The temporary accounts are closed by transferring their balances to permanent accounts. This is done by passing closing entries. Closing entries are based on the account balances in the adjusted trial balance.
Temporary accounts include:
  1. Revenue, Income and Gain Accounts
  2. Expense and Loss Accounts
  3. Dividend, Drawings or Withdrawals Accounts
  4. Income Summary Account
The following example shows the closing entries based on the adjusted trial balance of Company A.

Notes:
  1. Service revenue account is debited and income summary account is credited to transfer the balance of service revenue account to income summary account. If a business has other income accounts, for example gain on sale account, then the debit side of the first closing entry will also include the gain on sale account and the income summary account will be credited for the sum of all income accounts.
  2. Each expense account is credited and the income summary is debited for the sum of the balances of expense accounts.
  3. Income summary account is debited and retained earnings account is credited for the an amount equal to the excess of service revenue over total expenses i.e. the net balance in income summary account after posting the first two closing entries. In this case 85,600 − 77,364 = 8,236.
  4. The last closing entry transfers the dividend or withdrawal account balance to the retained earnings account.

A post-closing trial balance is a list of balances of ledger accounts prepared after closing entries have been passed and posted to the ledger accounts. Since the closing entries transfer the balances of temporary accounts (i.e. expense, revenue, gain, dividend and withdrawal accounts) to the retained earnings account, the new balances of temporary accounts are zero and therefore they are not listed on a post-closing trial balance. However, all the other accounts having non-negative balances are listed including the retained earnings account.
The preparation of post-closing trial balance is the last step of the accounting cycle and its purpose is to be sure that sum of debits equal the sum of credits before the start of new accounting period. It provides the openings balances for the ledger accounts of the new accounting period.
The following post-closing trial balance was prepared after posting the closing entries of Company A to its general ledger and calculating new account balances:
