No, it is not a complete proof of arithmetical accuracy of account. A Trial Balance in which the credit and debit accounts match does not prove that, all transactions have been recorded in the proper accounts. For example, the wages paid for the installation of machinery had been erroneously recorded by debiting the wages account in the place of machinery account, the Trial Balance would still agree. Similarly, an agreed Trial Balance does not prove that all transactions have been recorded in the books of original entry. For example, a credit sale invoice were to be completely omitted from being recorded in the sales day book, the error would not be disclosed in the Trial Balance. To conclude, we can say that a trial balance should not be recorded as a conclusive proof of the correctness of the books of account.

How do you explain significant figures are related to precision and accuracy?

Significant figures indicate the precision of a measurement, representing the certainty of the digits recorded. The more significant figures a number has, the more precise it is, as it reflects a finer level of detail in the measurement. Accuracy, on the other hand, refers to how close a measured value is to the true value. While significant figures convey precision, they do not guarantee accuracy; a precise measurement can still be inaccurate if systematic errors are present.

I can't actually do on here for you, however I can explain what a Post Closing Trial Balance is and how to get one. A Post Closing Trial Balance is a Trial Balance that is prepared only after all. 1)It helps to check for arithmetical errors (Whether if Dr & Cr matches) 2)It helps to summarize all the main information needed for quicker reference. 3)It aid in final accounts.The purpose of the trial balance is (historically) to verify if any errors were made with posting the journal entries to the ledger.
