Explain the differences between permanent and temporary accounts and identify which types of accounts must be closed at the end of a company’s fiscal year. Additionally, for a Moulding and Mill-working company, identify at least three permanent and at least three temporary accounts your business would have and explain why each account is classified as such.
Once closing entries have been entered in the general journal and posted to the ledger, what is the effect on the owner’s capital (or retained earnings) account?
