Batliboi leaning of Trial Balance (a the businessmen after completion of postings frm Journal or Subsidiary Books ‘to the Ledger, want to verify accuracy of the posting. For this purpose a statement is prepared wherein the balances of all the accounts in the Ledger are incorporated. The statement so prepared is called ‘Trial f Balance’ JAccounts showing debit balances are put on the debit side of the trial balance } and the accounts showing credit balances are put on its credit side. If the total of the E debit side of the trial balance is equal to that of its credit side, it is presumed that the } posting to the ledger is accurate. The reason for agreement of a trial balance is that under the double entry system, | each transaction is recorded two times, once on the debit side of an account and again on the credit side of another account. Thus, the total of all the entries on the debit side of all the accounts must be equal to the total of all the entries on the credit side of all the accounts. If the totals of both the sides of a trial balance are equal, it is proved that the books gre atleast arithmetically correct. oso of Trial Balance According to Carter, ‘Trial Balance is the list of debit and credit balances, taken out from ledger. It also includes the balances of cash and bank taken fromi cash book.”” According to William Pickles, ‘The statement prepared with the help of ledger f balances, at the end of financial year (or at any other date) to find out whether debit ; total agrees with credit total is called Trial Balance.” eR ee TRIAL BALANCE AND ERRORS eristics of a Trial Balance st of balances of all ledger accounts and the cash book. just a statement, and not an account. Itis neither a part of double entry system, nor does it appear in the actual books of accounts. It is just a working paper. 4. It can be prepared at any time during the accounting period, say, at the end of every month, every quarter, every half ycar or every year. Usually it is prepared at the end of accounting year before preparing the final accounts. It is always prepared on a particular date and not for a particular period. . Itis prepared to check the arithmetical accuracy of the ledger accounts. 7. If the books are arithmetically accurate, the total of all debit balances of a trial balance will be equal to the total of all credit balances. 8. A tallied Trial Balance is not a conclusive proof of the accuracy of the books of accounts since certain type of errors remain even when the Trial Balance tallies. aun jectives or Need or Functions of Preparing Trial Balance ‘The following are the objects or functions of preparing a trial balance -— (1) To ascertain the arithmetical accuracy of the ledger accounts. (2) To help in locating errors. f (3) To obtain a summary of the ledger accounts. j (4) To help in the preparation of Finai Accounts. (1) To ascertain the arithmetical accuracy of the ledger accounts :— The trial ; balance provides a useful check upon the ledger postings. If a trial balance tallies, itis proved that the posting to the ledger accounts is correct. In other words, it ensures that both the aspects of cach transaction have been posted into the ledger ie., debit aspects | have been posted on the debit side and the corresponding credit aspects on the credit side. (2) To help in the detection or location of errors :— If a trial balance does not tally, it indicates that some errors have occurred and the accountant will then proceed to locate such errors. Even a small difference in the trial balance is to be given the same | importance and attention as a large difference because it may be possible that there may be a number of errors which have offset the effect of one another, resulting in a small composite difference. (3) To obtain a summary of the ledger accounts : A Trial Balance serves as a summary of all the ledger accounts. Scanning the Trial Balance enables one to know the assets, liabilities, expenses, incomes etc. (4) For the preparation of Final Accounts :— As the trial balance contains the list of all the Ledger accounts, it provides a basis for further processing of accounting data, i.¢., preparation of final accounts namely Trading and Profit & Loss Account and a Balance Sheet. Defects of a Trial Balance ‘A Trial Balance in which the credit and debit accounts match does no! PENT that : el tansactions have been correctly analysed and recorded in the proper accounts. If, for examp!

Omission to Post an Amount in the Ledger ‘The two sides of a Trial Balance will not agree, when transaction has been correctly recorded in the books of original entry but has not been posted in the ledger. a cash receipt of £500 from X has been properly recorded in the cash book, but has not been posted on the aca eide of X Account, the credit side of the Trial Balance will fall short by ¥ 500. ted Twice If only one side of the transaction is 2. Debit or Credit Entries are not Posted at all or Pos! hased on eredit from X for € 300 has been properly lance will fail to agree. Similar recorded, the Trial Balance will not agree. If stationery pure! r seemed in the Stationery Account but not in the account of X, the Trial Balane® . TX Account is correctly credited but Stationery Account has been wrongly debited twice, the Trial Balanos will not agree. 3. Debits are Wrongly Posted as Credits and Vice Versa A Trial Balance. will be in disagreement Sooo acaction i recorded on the wrong side of an account. Ifa cash receipt of € 1,000 as interest i properly debited in the cash book but has been recorded on the debit side of the interest account by mistake, the credit side of the Trial Balance will fall short by € 2,000. 4. Wrong Totalling of Subsidiary Books Ifthe total of any subsidiary books has been cast wrongly, it will Gause a disagreement in the Trial Balance. Ifthe sales day book is wrongly totalled as & 1,800 (instead of £1.00) sales account will be credited by 1,800 but the debtor's account willbe debited by @ 1,700, in which case the Trial Balance will fail to agree. 5. Difference in Amount between the Entries If different values of an item are posted in two different a linte the Trial Balance will not agree. A cash receipt of 2,000 from X is correctly recorded in the secs ‘bat the account of X is incorrectly credited by € 200, the credit side of the Trial Balance would fall short by % 1,800. 6. Error in the Computation of an Account Balance If the balance of an account is not correctly com- puted, the balance of the ledger will not show the true position and will cause disagreement of the Trial Balance. 7. Omission of Account Balance If the balance ofan account is not listed in the Trial Balance at all, it will fail to agree. 8.

Errors jn Extraction of the Trial Balance The Trial Balance will not tally if any or both the columns are ial Balance If the balance of an account is ‘rors Not Disclosed by a Trial Balance ther from the books of original entry, it will 1. Errors of Omission Ifa. particular transaction is omitted altogetl not disturb the agreement of the Trial Balance. Ifa sum of & 100 paid to X, is‘not recorded either in the Cash Book or in the account of X, only the total of the Trial Balance will fall short by & 100, but the debit and credit columns will show no difference. Finanei 2, Errors of Principle ‘These errors arise because of an incorrect application of the principles of accounting, forinstance. failure to differentiate between capital and revenue expenditure, The existence of this type of error jg not disclosed by the Trial Balance. Examples are : (a) Wages paid for installation of machinery being debited to Wages Account; and, (b) Repairs of the building debited to Building Account and the like. 3. Compensating Errors These are a group of errors, the total effect of which is not reflected in the Trial Balance. These errors are of a neutralizing nature, i.e., one error is compensated by another error or by errors ofan opposite nature. For example, an extra debit in Salary Account for 100 may be compensated by an extra credit of € 100 in Sales Account. 4, Recording Wrong Amount in the Books of Original Entry If a transaction is wrongly recorded in the books of original entry and is subsequently carried through the ledgers, it will not cause disagreement in the Trial Balance. For example, if stationery purchased for cash 175 is recorded in the cash book as © 7 51 and posted to Stationery Account in the ledger as 751, the Trial Balance will still agree 5, Recording Both Aspects of a Transaction more than once in the Books of Account The Trial Bal- ‘ance will agree if both aspects of a transaction are recorded twice in the books of original entry. For example, ifa credit purchase of € 4,000 from Tata Chemicals Ltd. is entered in the purchase day book twice, the error will not cause a disagreement in the totals of the Trial Balance. 6. Errors in Recording a Transaction on the Correct Side of a Wrong Account If a transaction is re- corded on the correct side ofa wrong account, it will not cause a disagreement in the Trial Balance. For example, if @ 500 cash paid to Ram, is wrongly debited to Raman Account, it will not affect the agreement of the Trial Balance. 48 The Trial Balance uspense Account ; count in whi temporary basis when th, [A Suspense Account is a Ledger Account in which entries are made on a PMD © com ccot eannot be immediately identified This may be so beeause further informat > i fe become ava orwhile preparing the accounts the accountant is unsure of how t0 proceed wih hs STi the fallin cases: () to balance a disagreed Trial Balance; (ii) to post doubtful items; an. ord incon transactions.

For example, an advance of £10,000 received from X for the goods tobe delivered in the Future, subject to availability. A Suspense Account can include many transactions of this nature, without involving any error. Préparation of The Trial Balance from Given Ledger Balances For the purpose of preparing the Trial Balance from a given list of ledger balances, the following rules should be followed: The balances of all accounts relating to: (a) Assets; (b) Expenses; (c) Losses; (d) Drawings; and (e) Debtors, should be placed in the Debit column of the Trial Balance. 2.7 The balances of all accounts relating to: (a) Liabilities; (b) Income and Revenue; (c) Gain; and (d) Creditors, should be placed in the Credit column of the Trial Balance.
