Yes, financial statements are typically prepared from the unadjusted trial balance, but adjustments must be made first to account for accrued and deferred items. The unadjusted trial balance provides a summary of all account balances at a specific time, but it does not reflect necessary adjustments such as depreciation or accrued expenses.
