A Balance Sheet will only show the "standing accounts" (fundamental 
types Asset, Liability, Equity). It will not show the "temporary" 
accounts of type Income and Expense (the NET of those shows up as a 
virtual account "retained" (gains or losses). The way most of us use 
gnucash we never do a "close the books" operation so that "temporary" is 
misleading.

Keep mind, back in the old days, PHYSICAL books. Closing the old books 
and opening new usually meant a new PHYSICAL book. But often, when 
keeping the books for an entity with low volume of transaction, far less 
than a small bound volume would hold, just resumed after a couple 
intentionally blank pages. LESS FORMAL (no legal need) I used "loose 
leaf", but "for real" the bound books better as harder to alter without 
detection.
