With respect to which assets and liabilities that are omitted, I am not sure.
If depreciation was omitted what effects would this have on the final 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

Discuss the limitations of trial balance?
Limitations of a trial balanceTrial Balance only confirms that the total of all debit balances match the total of all credit balances. Trial balance totals may agree in spite of errors. An example would be an incorrect debit entry being offset by an equal credit entry. Likewise, a trial balance gives no proof that certain transactions have not been recorded at all because in such case, both debit and credit sides of a transaction would be omitted causing the trial balance totals to still agree. Types of accounting errors and their effect on trial balance are more fully discussed in the section on Suspense Accounts.
