Reflection


Today, I continued adjusting the general ledger and journal entries to solve the imbalance in the balance sheet. I spent quite a long time trying to balance the figures, and it was quite frustrating because the trial balance matched, but the balance sheet still didn’t tally. I asked Ms. Amber for help, and she patiently guided me through the corrections. With her explanation, I managed to balance the trial balance. However, the balance sheet still had discrepancies, which left me feeling confused. Later, I approached Ms. Chan for further clarification. With her help, I started tracing the issue more carefully and continued working to identify what was causing the imbalance. This process showed me how important it is to be persistent, detail-oriented, and not afraid to ask for guidance when stuck.
