EXCEL NOTES: | | | | | | | | | | |
| * Notice the T-accounts beginning balances are linked to the first sheet "trial balance." Please "link" your numbers when posting | | | | |
| to the T-accounts for practice and convenience. This also reduces the likelihood of errors. | | | | | |
| * Please take advantage of Excel by using formulas to calculate/sum groups of numbers (i.e. "Total Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity"). | | | |
| * DO NOT force any cells to match check figures given. Any adjustments in the T-Accounts or financial statements not supported by | | | |
| legitimate adjusting or closing entries will be considered financial statement misrepresentation sufficient to result in a failing grade. | | | |
