Trial Balance Commission Credit Trial balance commission debit or credit?

In accounting, a trial balance is a list of the balances of all the general ledger accounts of a business at a particular point in time. It is typically prepared at the end of an accounting period, such as a month or a year, to help ensure that the total of all debits equals the total of all credits, which is a requirement for the double-entry system of accounting.

In the trial balance, commissions would be recorded as a debit in the commission expense account. This is because commission expenses are recorded as a debit in the general ledger because they represent an increase in the company's expenses. The debit entry in the commission expense account will be offset by a corresponding credit entry in the Accounts Payable account, which represents the company's liability to pay the commission.𝓱𝓽𝓽𝓹𝓼://𝔀𝔀𝔀.𝓭𝓲𝓰𝓲𝓼𝓽𝓸𝓻𝓮24.𝓬𝓸𝓶/𝓻𝓮𝓭𝓲𝓻/449012/𝓢𝓱𝓮𝓻𝓲𝓷𝓪𝓷𝓸𝓸𝓹/
