INVENTORY CLASSIFICATIONS

Opening WEEK 3

-         Inventory : These are stocks of materials that are in the                                     store to start a fresh production

-         Closing Inventory: These are stocks of materials that are in the store                               for the best accounting period.

Cost of goods sold is therefore determined by adding opening inventory to the purchases to get cost of goods available for sales then deduct closing inventory to arrive at COGS.

 

PURCHASES

These are cost of materials bought for production purposes but excluding assets that are for business uses.

Related adjustments on purchases will include;

Purchase discount: This is discount given due to bulk purchases of materials

Purchase Returns: This is those items return to seller of the material due to one reason or the other

Purchase allowances: This is a form of reduction given as advantage to buyer when a certain precondition given by the seller is met.

Carriage Inwards: These are the cost of transport of the purchased raw materials.

Carriage outwards:  These are cost incurred in making delivery to the customers

Stock theft and other losses: These are to be removed from value of goods sold. The treatment of losses involves two accounts – the trading aspect i.e. trading accounts and the statement of comprehensive income i.e. the profit or loss account.

Example:

            BKB Enterprises commenced business on 1/1/2019 when materials worth #600,000 was purchased. During the year ended 31/12/2019, no sales was made but goods worth #10,000 were stolen.

 

TREATMENT OF THE STOLEN VALUE.

                     Trading account as at 31/12/2019

                                                                #                             #

                  Purchases                                                       600,000

                  SCI   (Goods stolen)             10,000

                         Closing inventory                    590,000                            

                                                                          600,000             600,000

 

  Statement of Comprehensive Income as at 31/12/2019

                                                                             #             #

   Trading Account                                                            10,000                                            Net loss                                                                10,000     

                                                                         10,000         10,000

Thus, the inventory should be valued at the lower of cost price and net realizable value for inclusion in the statement of financial position as at the end of the period.
