A trial balance is a list of accounts and their balances at a given time. Customarily, companies prepare a trial balance at
the end of an accounting period. They list accounts in the order in which they appear in the ledger. Debit balances
appear in the left column and credit balances in the right column.
The purpose: The trial balance proves the mathematical equality of debits and credits after posting. Under the double-
entry system, this equality occurs when the sum of the debit account balances equals the sum of the credit account
balances. A trial balance may also uncover errors in journalizing and posting.
