These transactions are separated from capital so the business can analyze how a profit or loss was made during the year. At the end of the year, the accumulation of these revenues and expenses are transferred into the capital account. The temporary accounts are reset to zero, which allows the business to compare the revenue and expense data from one period to the next. 38
