The IRS has announced that interest rates will remain unchanged for the calendar quarter beginning January 1, 2026.

For individuals, the rate for overpayments (yes, IRS has to pay you interest sometimes) and underpayments will be 7% per year, compounded daily.

The rate is 6% for corporate overpayments (4.5% for the portion exceeding $10,000) and 7% for corporate underpayments (9% for large corporate underpayments).

The interest rate is set quarterly—the most recent rates are based on the federal short-term rate determined in October 2025.

You can find the details in Rev Ruling 2025-22, which will appear in IRB 2025-48, dated November 24, 2025. (Remember that you can find all of the IRB links in my free weekly tax newsletter.)

Trial Balance Adjustments The Key to Accurate Financial Reporting

A Trial Balance may balance perfectly... yet still not tell the full story.

That's where Trial Balance Adjustments come in the crucial step between bookkeeping and financial statement preparation.

Adjustments help correct errors and account for transactions that haven't been recorded yet ensuring that your financial statements reflect the true financial position of the business.

*Common examples include:

*Accrued expenses and revenues

*Depreciation adjustments

*Prepaid expenses

*Provision for doubtful debts

*Inventory adjustments

Each of these entries ensures that income and expenses are recorded in the right period, following the accrual concept and matching principle of accounting.

So next time you prepare a trial balance, remember adjustments are not just corrections they are refinements that transform numbers into reliable insights.
