Preparing the Trial BalancePreparing a trial balance involves three steps:
1. List each account title and its amount (from ledger) in the trial balance. If an account has a zero balance, list it with a zero in the normal balance column (or omit it entirely).
2. Compute the total of debit balances and the total of credit balances.
3. Verify (prove) total debit balances equal total credit balances.
