Closing Trial Balance Report

This report shows this year's and last year's figures as an ordinary trial balance. Note that for income statement accounts, the balances are shown without closing entries (closing entries are listed on a fictitious date that falls between the last day of one fiscal year and the first day of the next one). The closing of the income statement accounts is posted at the end of a fiscal year. The report can be used, for example, in connection with closing a fiscal year.
