There are 2 ways

1. If you are preparing P&L account

Credit your incomes in P&L such as salary, bank interest, other income

Debit all expenses in p&l such as rent expenses or other expenses from bank account

Then tr the balance to capital account. Also credit/debit Tax expense, any gift received in cash/kind etc

2. If you are not preparing P&L account

Then credit/debit all such income or expenses as said in above point 1, just pass direct entry to capital account

Any difference in balancing the balance sheet will be your withdrawal from capital account

Hi

when you are preparing balance sheet for salaried employee , there will be few ledgers which will play important role.

1. capital
2. bank
3. cash
4. assets
5. investments
6. loans recd.or given
7. drawings
8. salary recd
9. other income like interest , dividend etc
10. Loan like housing loan

simple.way to prepare balance sheet is just account all.the bank entries as fits in above 10 ledgers. if you are.doing it for the very first time then take the total.of opening balance of all assets , investments , bank and cash as reduced with known liability like Home loan and that will become your opening of capital account.

based on the entries passed in each individual account , take the necessary action to close the account , wherever required and your balance sheet will be ready.
