15. U4A3 Adjusting Entries and
the Work Sheet
• Journalizing and Posting the Adjusting Entries
– All the adjusting entries need to be properly journalized and
posted to the ledger
– Reminder that the work sheet is an informal accounting
document, which means it is only used internally (inside the
company) – it is a tool used the by the accounting dept to
organize data before creating the formal financial
statements.
– Formal statements (I/S, B/S) are used externally (outside the
company)
