No they will be overstated as depreciation will not have been taken into account.
Depreciation is the reduction in value of real assets, such as a motor vehicle, buildings, plant and machinery. The principle reason for this accounting item is to ensure that such items may be replaced as they end their use. Strictly speaking, in proper accounting practice - the amount of depreciation indicated should be the dollar value of money in the bank. Failing to show depreciation overstates the profit of the organisation, and causes cash flow problems when the depreciated item is required to be replaced. By overstating the profit - the organisation is also liable for additional tax payments. Olegas J. Bogdanovas New Zealand
A trial balance can not be completely referred to as a proof of accuracy this is basically due to the following errors:-error of total omission-if an entry is totally omitted from the journals then the trial balance will not show any discrepancy.-error of commision-if an account is debited instead of being credited and then the another account which completes the double entry is credited instead of it being debited then the the discrepancy will not be noticed.
opportunity cost
Double-check your addition. Compute the difference between the debits and credits. Is there an account with that balance which was omitted from the balance sheet? Divide the difference in half. If there is an account with that balance, it may be shown on the wrong side of the trial balance (a debit balance shown as a credit or vice-versa). If the difference is evenly divisible by 9, there may be a transposition (ie, writing down 81 instead of 18 or 572 instead of 527). That transposition could occur in your addition, in an account balance or in one of the transactions posted to an account. If none of the above works, go back and check that each journal (ie cash receipts jounal, etc) balances and was posted correctly. Then check every other entry to make sure it balances and was posted correctly. Keep the difference in mind (and half the difference), that is the amount you are looking for.
if depreciation is omitted on final account it will Over state the profit .

Yes, there are. See the link below for some examples.

letters that are omitted from memos
It's often pronounced with an omitted letter.

No, it is not a complete proof of arithmetical accuracy of account. A Trial Balance in which the credit and debit accounts match does not prove that, all transactions have been recorded in the proper accounts. For example, the wages paid for the installation of machinery had been erroneously recorded by debiting the wages account in the place of machinery account, the Trial Balance would still agree. Similarly, an agreed Trial Balance does not prove that all transactions have been recorded in the books of original entry. For example, a credit sale invoice were to be completely omitted from being recorded in the sales day book, the error would not be disclosed in the Trial Balance. To conclude, we can say that a trial balance should not be recorded as a conclusive proof of the correctness of the books of account.
