It is extremely important to record the adjusting entries in the preparation of final accounts. 

1. This is done in order to assess the true net profit or net loss of the business organization. 

2. It helps us record those adjustments which were left or omitted and were not recorded in the accounts. 

3. It assists us to separate all the financial transactions into a year-wise category. The financial statements include only those entries which belong to the current year. It rules out the previous and forth coming years’ entries which are the basis for accrual basis of accounting. 

4. Further, it provides us the room for making various provisions which are made at the end of the year, after assessing the entries year’s performance.
