Explanation:

Adjusting journal entries are prepared at the end of an accounting period.  They adjust the expense and revenue accounts in line with the accrual concept and the matching principle of generally accepted accounting principles.

The adjusting entries are for unpaid expenses, unreceived earned revenue, prepaid expenses, deferred revenue, and depreciation expenses, and correction of errors in posting transactions to the general ledger.
