Closing Entries (Two Approaches)

[@MICHAEL24AZ]

Tell me why I go to a university and sit through lecture after lecture and get absolutely nothing out of it. Then I look on KZbin, watch a few videos, do a few examples and BAM!!!! I'm a fucking genius? Thank you so much sir. Wish you were my college professor for accounting.

[@noname89636]

+Mike E ... This is exactly how I feel. Accounting textbooks take you through so much drama. This is bite sized and to the point. I feel like all his videos taught me more about accounting than the $200 paperweights we have to buy.

[@dragnfly138]

Mike E that would be all of us my friend

[@ayonsaha7963]

@Mike E, I guess we are all visual learners :)

[@rat3390]

I get an a-hole teacher his semester, she rushes over everything and seems we already know everything. I paid tuition fee actually have to learn from KZbin

[@nita3996]

[@Lolasurf924]

This professor is exemplary. He points out exactly what is needed to remember and know. I wish all my professors would follow his example. Excellent!!!

[@noname89636]

+Lola Surf ... Straight and to the point; no filler.

[@tuanhoangnguyen4784]

You are an excellent instructor! Just had my first Financial Accounting test, and this was the last problem set, and I tanked it! Luckily I know what I did wrong with your help;It's pretty basic.

[@muhammedasifkhurshid1156]

[@isabelleonorschonemberg3711]

Larry, u r the best! Such a clear and simple explanation without all the mombo jumbo.Thank u!!!!

[@lucatintor4896]

You are natural teacher mister, I watched hundreds of videos in KZbin but nobody is even close of you ability to explain clearly the topics. you should teach those people that post accounting videos how to expose topics. GRAZIE MILLE MISTER.

[@olivabibian]

You are an amazing instructor!!! God bless you and thank you for relieving my anxiety on a lot of accounting stuff that you have made so clear and easy to understand. 🙏😊

[@Lmustashio]

This video was very helpful. I have my accounting exam today and this was a great way to review closing entries. Thank you so much for this video!

[@sharavv676]

Larry .. God of accounting

[@kindalindaable]

All of your Accounting videos...are amazing! Thank you so much mister!

[@oneatatimemrchow]

this is the best explanation , very clear and easy to understand.Thanks a lot

[@surgingtides]

Thank you for the tutorial. So what I gained from this video: - Revenue, Expense and Dividend accounts are TEMPORARY accounts and we need to close them. To close them we either debit (if it's credit account like Revenue) or credit (if it's debit account like Expenses and Dividends) to net those account into 0. However, since the debit/credit action occurs, we need to credit/debit these amounts in somewhere else - The first way is to debit/credit thoss amount straight into the Retained account (note that this is a PERMANENT account => don't need closing). The final balance will be put into the balance sheet as Retained earning - The 2nd way is to debit/credit the amounts from Revenue and Expense accounts to an account called Income Summary. We then also close the Income Summary account together with the Dividend account and credit/debit the amount to Retained earning account.
