b) Yi Min's trial balance lists all the general ledger accounts (both revenue and capital) of a business at the end of May. This list is made up of the Account Titles of each nominal ledger account and the value of that ledger balance as either a debit balance or a credit balance.  The two sides are expected to be in agreement, otherwise, an error in posting could have occurred.

c) The Cash account is the general ledger where all cash transactions are posted and summarized in order to determine the balance at the end of the period.  It records the cash receipts and the cash payments.
