Since some adjusting entries performed at the end of a financial period disrupt routine transactions, they are simply reversed on the first day of the new period. A reversing entry exact reverses the adjusting entry. An example of an adjusting entry that is commonly reversed is salary or wages payable. Reversing entries are performed because they reduce errors and save time. Reversing entries are optional and some firms do not perform them.
