Answer:

- List; credit

"A trial balance is a(n) list of accounts and their balances at a point in time and is used to confirm that the sum of debit account balances equals the sum of credit account balances."

Step-by-step explanation:

'Trial Balance' is described as the 'statement of the balances of all nominal accounts in a double-entry ledger.' It is primarily made with the aim to examine the equality in the debit, as well as, credit balances. As per the accounting rules, the total value of the debits must be equal to the total of credit values. Any difference or discrepancy in the balance signals that an error has been made in the calculation or making the entries and certain transactions are missed out. Thus, the correct words would be 'list and credit.'
