Which account would be closed by posting a debit to the account?

The closing process seeks to reduce the balance of each account that needs to be closed to zero; therefore, the closing entry must reverse whatever balance the account already has.

Revenue is an example of an account that must be closed with a debit, since it is normally a credit account.
