Requirement 6. Post adjusting entries and prepare an adjusted trial balance.

Start by posting the adjusting entries. The balance of the accounts that you calculated in Requirement 3 have been entered for you. Post the adjusting entries using "Adj." and the applicable letter as the posting reference (Adj.(a) for adjusting entry(a), Adj.(b) for adjusting entry (b), and so on.). Compute each account's adjusted balance after posting the adjustments, and denote the balance as Bal. (For any accounts with a zero balance after posting the transactions, select a "Bal." reference and enter a "0" on the normal side of the T-account.)

I AM SO CONFUSED! how do I know which box to use for the adjustments?
