Absolutely. In Nevada it is called a first and final accounting showing everything in the estate and everything out. It is probably the same under New Jersey law.

The executor must handle all of the property, money and investments of the Estate in a very careful manner. If a demand is made in the proper legal form, then the Executor must show what he did with all of it (this is called an accounting).
