Instead of applying a credit on retained earnings, temporary T-accounts are used (sales and cost of goods sold) Sales has a normal credit balance, hence it is credited Cost of goods sold has a normal debit balance, hence it is debited Notice that the two temporary T-accounts together are credited for 20, which is the profit margin
