Question

rent and taxes in trail balance of financial statement is trading or p/L?​

Answer 1

In order to arrive at the balance sheet of a business, one needs to prepare the trading account and profit and loss account first. This account is prepared to arrive at the figure of revenue earned or loss incurred during a period. Let us understand the trading account and profit and loss account in detail.

Answer 2

This account is similar to the other accounts in the ledger. All credit amounts in the trial balance are shown in the credit side of the P&L account and all debit amounts are shown on the debit side. When totals of these two sides are compared, if credit side is more than the debit side, the firm has made a profit.
