Solution

The correct option is A True
Yes, the given statement is correct.
A trial balance is a bookkeeping or accounting report that lists the balances in each of an organization's general ledger account (Accounts with zero balances will likely be omitted.) The debit balance amounts are listed in a column with the heading "Debit balances" and the credit balance amounts are listed in another column with the heading "Credit balances." The total of each of these two columns should be identical.
With the help of trial balance final accounts i.e., trading account, profit & loss account and balance sheet is prepared. Items of revenue nature shown in trading and profit & loss account and items of capital nature are shown in balance sheet.
