  1. Update retained earnings

      1. Revenues, expenses, and dividends represent amounts for a period of time; one must "zero out" these accounts at the end of each period.

            1. Step 3: close the income summary account to retained earnings
              1. Step 4: close the dividend account to retained earnings
