Balance Sheet

Post by bach3206tx@yahoo.com »

How can a balance sheet account be a different dollar amount than the same account on the Trial Balance and every other report. It is off by a journal entry amount that we entered but we have accounted for it in balancing our checking account and all other reports.

Does the Total Assets equal the Total Liablities & Equity on the Balance Sheet? If so, then the report is correct.

The Trial Balance is only used to insure that the posted debits and credits are in balance.

As far as the checking account balance, here's some info on reconciling that, and balance sheets:
