From the grade 11 text book, occassionally an account that would normally have a debit balance, ends up having a credit balance or vise versa not because of a mistake. There is a reason the account ends up with opposit of the normal, for example, if you over pay an account payable, or a customer returns unsatisfactory merchandise for credit.

What does it mean if the ap account balance has increased on the trial balance?

The trial balance is the list of all open accounts in the ledger (although post-closing trial balances exist as well). If the A/P (Accounts Payable) account increased on the trial balance, this would mean that entries had been made (journalized) and posted to the ledger that increase the A/P account balance. For example, buying inventory on account would increase the A/P account balance. This transaction would be journalized and then posted (process of transferring info from journal to ledger). This would result in an increase in A/P on the trial balance.
