Q1) What is a trial balance? What is its purpose?

Answer: The trial balance is a list of all of the accounts in the ledger with balances at a point in time presented in debit and credit columns according to their balance. The purpose of the trial balance is to summarize the account totals and to verify the accuracy of the total debits and credits. If the total debits and credits are not equal, it indicates an error in the accounting records. However, even if debits do equal credits this is no guarantee that no errors were made in recording and posting transactions.
