2. Show journal entries, adjusting entries and closing entries for the below additional information...none of the journal entries for 2017 have been posted to the ledger.

3. Prepare a Statement of Retained Earnings for the year ended 2017.  This statement should be flexibly designed.

4. Prepare a Classified Balance Sheet dated Dec. 31, 2017.  Again, a flexible design is required so any changes will automatically update the balance sheet.
