The business started in 2021 with $1000 of owner's equity and that has never been closed into retained earnings so is it too late or can I do it this year?

Best answer by BigRedConsulting

Generally, only current earnings become retained earnings. Owner's equity isn't normally closed into retained earnings, so there may not be anything to do.
