    Hello,how are you guys?
    if initially we are given both opening inventory and closing inventory balances in the same trial balance, and then told to draw a corrected trial balance,do we include the closing inventory bal in the corrected trial balance?

    The trial balance is normally prepared as soon as the bookkeeper has finished, but before the year-end adjustments are put through (the adjustments for inventory, depreciation, accruals & prepayments, and irrecoverable and doubtful debts).
    For that reason the trial balance should normally include the opening inventory but not the closing inventory.
