Step 2

We will now enter the opening balances for SpringTime as taken from the 1999 trial balance.

Note that we must first "close out" the operating and capital funds to arrive at our ending fund balances. The fund balances on the trial balance provided are the opening fund balances. (The opening balance is the balance at the beginning of the period, before the revenues, expenses and transfers for the year have been applied to arrive at the ending, or closing balance.)
