Solution

The item that is NOT found on the debit column of a trial balance is D. Capital.

Here's why:

A trial balance is a bookkeeping worksheet in which the balances of all ledgers are compiled into debit and credit account column totals that are equal.

A. Postage and stationary, B. Motor vehicle, C. Rent and rates, and E. Salaries and wages are all expenses, and expenses are recorded in the debit column of a trial balance.

D. Capital, on the other hand, is a liability to the business owner and is therefore recorded in the credit column of a trial balance, not the debit column.
