| Purpose: | (L.O. 2) This exercise will give you practice in identifying those accounts which are closed at the end of the accounting period and those accounts which are not closed. |
Instructions
Indicate whether the following accounts would or would not be closed at the end of the accounting period by placing an “X” in the appropriate column.
TIP: Remember the general rule: All nominal accounts (revenues, expenses, and dividends) are closed and all real accounts (assets, liabilities, common stock, and retained earnings) are not closed.

TIP: Nine of the following are nominal or temporary accounts; eleven are real or permanent accounts.
