Thank you Bill, you’re a great mentor. I’m 2nd year in financial accounting as a GL Accountant and I only maintain our financial statements (not create it) and we have a similar numbering system. For the life of me I didn’t understand why the 1xxxx ≠ 2xxxx + 3xxxx. Realized the variance was the net income or retain earnings 🤯 I was too embarrassed to ask and I didn’t because it wasn’t affecting my daily tasks but it bugged me lol.
This content is very relevant to my current and previous courses. Thanks for instructions on how we create balance sheets for my Business! I look forward to learning more from your videos!
Love your content!! I'm a CPA as well but my focus has been on business processes, internal audit, and ERP admin/implementations. I'm finally getting into actual accounting and your videos have really helped!!
Will you please consider making a video on the career path you would recommend for those students who want to gain practical education and work experience to ultimately prepare themselves for starting and growing their own firm? I would really appreciate this kind of video since most accounting videos focus on becoming the best employee wo discussing a strategy for developing an end goal of preparing oneself to become self employed. Thankyou!
Min 7.24...if the Retained Earnings on the Balance Sheet does not equal the difference between the Debit & Credit on the Trial Balance, what should we do...thanks
Thanks again for sharing humbly your knowledge with us ... I would like to know how can I judge if the amount of retained earnings/ loss is logical compared to the amounts that I have on my BS
I love your contents. They are very educative. Please, I have the totals of both sales and COGS figures differ in balance sheet and trial balance in the QuickBooks. The figures in the Trial Balance only shows total figures for both sales and COGS for only November and December instead of January to December. What could be responsible for these differences and how do I correct them?
I'm a newer accountant and doing 2022's work paper for our management firm. It's my first time running through and tying down each account. For the most part I am doing well. What is a little confusing to me is that our Cobra Account needs to itemized by individual and plan. Can you fo over a work paper and explain Cobra?
This isn't necessarily related and maybe is personal to many accountants. Absolutely it is a rewarding career. But Bill, how do you stop a revolving door department? What options are there? A consulting firm that can manage complex bottlenecks. Imagine a growing company that goes through a system conversion that isn't understood well by other departments. And they are perhaps behind by 2-3 accounting periods. They haven't closed those periods. I think this topic is probably a lesson for controllers and I know you like to help those new to the profession. But it can be very complex while also being simple. It can sometimes be a matter of there not being enough hours in the day or resources in the department. You work for a midsized company. What do you think a hypothetical company that outgrew its accounting framework should do? This is so common in startups. The accounting function is very important to the success of any entity, needless to say.
The link to the excel file is the month end close checklist :( I'd love to have the excel file you're working with! Perhaps it's because I downloaded the financial close checklist from that video? Are we limited to one? Hmm
I believe it is not appropriate to lump accrued vacation liability with deferred rent as both items are not similar, the accrued vacation liability should have its separate line as deferred rent.
Thank you for explaining, this is what you call a real instructor it helps me understand clearly unlike my instructor..
