The most common ones are Revenue (income) and Expenses.
These accounts are closed out (because they are temporary) and affect the Net Income which in turn affects Retained Earnings, which is listed on the Balance Sheet. To try and explain "why" is because temporary accounts are used to figure either Net Profit or Net loss. They are closed out leaving them with a balance of $0. At the end of the period in which we choose (usually monthly for income) we We close out our expense accounts in order to figure our monthly Net Profit or Loss.
Revenue and Expenses affect only our Income Statement and our Statement of Retained Earnings.
