This is actually not true, at least for recent releases.  (I’m not sure when this feature was added.)

For each of your closing entries, i.e., transfers to equity, use consistently a description like “Closing entry”.

When making the income report, there is an option to define a match to closing entries, which will disregard them and just add up all the others.
