I think the latter are probably the issue.

Please confirm for us whether or not, when your accountant gave you 
"adjustments" you entered them. I think the confusion is about what the 
process was in the old days. Close the books (for external transactions) 
and then enter adjustment transactions.

The balances of the "standing account" (asset, liability, equity) are 
what would be "brought forward" to the start of the new accounting 
period. Those are what show on a "Balance Sheet"
