Question

America Gomez · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : False, Explanation :  The income statement reports revenues and expenses for a specific period and does not include balance sheet accounts, which are the accounts that appear on the post-closing trial balance. The post-closing trial balance includes only permanent accounts (assets, liabilities, and equity) and not the temporary accounts (revenues, expenses, dividends) that are closed to equity and appear on the income statement.
