User: a worksheet is a permanent accounting record and its use is required in the accounting cycle. Choosing a position and support your answer.

Weegy: Permanent record? False. It's a WORKSHEET. It's used as an aid to make adjusting entries and close the books at the end of a financial period. The financial statements are the permanent records; the worksheet isn't. I don't even use them anymore. [ [ That was back when things were done on paper. It's still useful as a teaching tool for accounting students though. After one knows 'what's going on' with adjusting entries, one really doesn't have to go through the whole worksheet process. (At least I don't). And hence, no, it's NOT required either. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110719090645AAfJUt6 ] ]
