$0 Correct! Since this is the first year of operation, the beginning balance in the Retained Earnings account is zero. Also, since the question specifies the BEFORE CLOSING balance, none of the Year 1 information from the temporary accounts has been transferred to the retained earnings account. Therefore, at this point, the Retained Earnings balance is zero.

The balance sheet is dated with the term "as of" because it describes information at a specific point in time. The balance sheet contains permanent accounts, whose balances are the result of transactions that have taken place since the company came into existence.
