Accounting problem

In examination problems depreciation is usually mentioned at certain percent per annum (% p.a.) on Ac cost of asset. If an asset is purchased in the current year, depreciation is to.be charged for the period from the date of purchase up to the end of the year. If the almirah is purchased on 1.10.2005, depreciation 3 to be charged for 3 months (Oct. to Dec.) on'31.12.2005. So the amount of depreciation will be Rs. 25 10 3
'°XTOOX12
. If the date of purchase is not mentioned, depreciation should be charged for 6 months,
^n the assumption that the asset has been purchased in the middle of the year. A note to that effect must be added.
2. SALE OF ASSETS:
Sale proceeds of assets will not be included in Income and Expenditure Account, since it is not a revenue item. But in the event of profit or loss on sale, loss will be debited to Income and Expenditure Account, but profit will not be taken to the credit of Income and Expenditure Account - it being capital mcome, will be credited to Capital Fund Account. If, however, the amount of profit is small, it may be credited to Income and Expenditure Account, since it will not affect the annual result in any significant onnner.
3. PURCHASE AND SALE OF NEWSPAPER:
Purchase of newspaper does not result in acquisition of any asset - so it is revenue expenditure. "Vhen purchased, it is debited to Income and Expenditure Account, When old newspapers are sold, the reatment is just the reverse.
4. PURCHASE AND SALE OF SPORTS MATERIALS:
Sports materials, viz. bat, ball etc. are spoiled in a very short time - so they are treated as revenue expenditure. Their sale or purchase will be dealt with in the same manner as "Purchase and Sale of Newspaper". However, if depreciation charged on sports material, then depreciation on sports material will be debited to income and expenditure account and the balance is shown in balance sheet on asset side.
5. SUBSCRIPTION:
The monthly or annual subscription paid by members is revenue income and hence credited to Income & Expenditure Account. The amount of subscription received hi this year may include subscription for last year or next year, which are to be excluded. Again, current year's subscription may be accrued or it might have been received last year in advance. Since these two items of subscription relate to current year, they are to be included. Thus we see that the following four adjustments are necessary for subscription:

Generally, in examination problems an account styled "Receipts & Payments Account" and some additional information are given with the help of which Final Accounts are to be prepared. Now let us see what Receipts & Payments Account is? All the information necessary for preparation of this account is available from Cash Book. Various cash receipts and cash payments during the whole year find place in this account in a classified manner. Its closing balance indicates cash in hand and cash at bank at the year-end. It may be noted that Receipts & Payments Account cannot disclose the true result of a concern - it is ascertained through Income & Expenditure Account. =-DEFINirrONS:

CHARACTERISTICS:
The following are the features of Receipts and Payments Account:
It is an abridged edition of Cash Book it is, in effect, a summary of Cash Book.

CONSIGNMENT ACCOUNTS

CONSIGNMENT ACCOUNTS
In today's world of business, every manufacturer or exporter or wholesaler tries his best to sell his products in his own country and abroad to a larger extent. But it is not an easy task, because a businessman cannot have the exact information about the demand of his product in different parts of the country and abroad. There are two methods by which businessmen can increase the sale of their products, (1) by opening their own branches in different parts of the country and abroad (2) by appointing agents in their own country as well as abroad. The first method is very expensive because a large sum of money is spent on the establishment of a branch and a number of persons are required as, manager, clerks, accountant etc. to carry out different operations of the branch. Inspite of spending such a heavy amount, the branch may prove un-successful or the profit earned by the branch may be very small as compare to the amount invested in the branch.
So far as the second method is concerned, the manufacturer or wholesaler just appoints an agent who sells goods on behalf and on the risk of the former. The agent is paid commission which is generally a percentage of sales made by him. This is comparatively a cheaper method by which sales can be promoted. This arrangement proves very useful due to the knowledge of the agent of the local conditions. The agent will try to sell the goods in the best possible manner and will remit the sale proceeds of the goods after deducting expenses and his own commission to the manufacturer or wholesaler.
Consignment is an act of sending the goods by the owner (manufacturer or whole sailer) to his agent, who agrees to collect, store and sell them on the risk and behalf of the owner on commission basis. The manufacturer or wholesaler who sends his good for sale is known as 'Consignor' and the person to whom the goods are sent is known as the 'Consignee*. The relationship between consignor and consignee is that of 'Principal and Agent* and not that of seller and buyer. It should be noted, carefully, that the consignee is not the buyer, he merely possesses the goods on behalf of the consignor. He is liable to make the payment to the consignor only to the extent the goods he has sold. Unsold goods belong to the consignor and are held by the consignee at the risk of the consignor.
When goods are dispatched by the consignor to the consignee, it will be a 'Consignment Outward' from consignor's view point and 'Consignment Inward' from consignee's view point.
A consignor may have a number of agents in different parts of the country or abroad to whom he sends good for sale. So, it will be very useful for him to maintain a separate subsidiary register (journal) with a view to keep full record of the goods consigned. This special register is named as 'Consignment Outward Book or Journal'. Accounting treatment of this book is similar to that of a sales book. On the other hand, a consignee may have a number of consignors from whom he receives goods for sale, so it will be very convenient for him to maintain a separate subsidiary register named as 'Consignment Inward Book'. However for solving the problems in the examination Journal is used for recording consignment transactions.
When goods are sent by the consigner to the consignee, he has to incurred some expenses on the goods consigned, such as carriage, dock dues, import duty, transportation, godown rent, Insurance etc. It should be remembered that generally all the expenses either paid by the consignor himself or by the consignee are borne by the consignor. The consignee will neither bear any expense or loss nor he will share iie profit made on the sale of goods. He will just receive his commission from the consignor.

Consigment

The consignment stock account is an asset and will be shown in the balance sheet. Next year it will be transferred to the debit side of the consignment account. The principle of valuing stock "Cost price or market price ihever is lower" applies in this case also. However, cost price means original cost of the unsold stock plus proportionate amount of the expenses ih are necessary to put the goods In their present place and condition such as freight, octroi, duty, insurance in transit, forwarding charges, carriage •p to consignee's godown etc. Generally all expenses incurred till the goods reach consignee's godown are seated as part of the cost whether incurred by the consignor or consignee. Expenses incurred in storage »nd selling the goods, after the goods reach consignee's godown are not to be iied in the cost of the stock. Instances of the latter type of expenses are godown rent and insurance for the godown and interest etc.
EXAMPLE:
Salman & Sons of Lahore consigned 500 units of goods to Ramzan of Nairobi, the cost price of i is Rs. 8,000. Salman & Sons paid the following expenses:
(a) Carriage Rs. 2,400 (b) Marine insurance Rs. 960 1 Freight Rs. 1,080. Ramzan incurred the following expenses:
Rs.
(d) Carriage from docks to consignee's warehouse 150
(e) Import duty 450(0 Carriage to the buyer's where house 500(g) Commission 160(h) Expenses on goods sold 100(i) Warehouse rent (consignee) 50
Out of 500 units 400 units were sold up to date. Find out the value of the closing stock on [•Msignment.
Solution:
Expenses mentioned from (a) to (e) have been incurred in making the goods saleable at the consignee's warehouse. The total (2,400 + 960 + 1,080 + 150 + 450) Rs. 5,040 should be added to the cost "unsold stock in such proportion that the unsold stock bears to the whole stock.
Total goods sent 500 units, goods unsold 100 units.
.'. Proportion of unsold stock to whole stock 5 : 1 or unsold stock is one-fifth of the total goods on consignment.
Rs.
Thus l/5th cost of goods sent on consignment 1,600
Add: l/5th expenses 1,008
Value of stock on consignment 2,608
Expenses connected with sales
Carriage to buyer's warehouse
Commission
(h) Expenses on goods sold.
(i) Warehouse rent are to be ignored for the purpose of valuation of closing stock.

Closing stock with consignee is valued at cost or market price whichever is less. To ascertain cost proportionate non-recurring expenses are included in the value of stock. Non-recurring expenses will include all such expenses, which have been incurred up to the time goods have reached to agent's selling place e.g. freight, cartage, transit insurance, octroi, import duty, customs charges, packing, etc. will be [included for stock valuation. Expenses like godown rent, godown insurance, sales expenses are not rhided in the value of stock. Market value is the net realizable value i.e. sales commission and other
ihie sales expenses are deducted from the market value on the closing date. ;{j) OVERRIDING COMMISSION:
Extra commission is normally granted by the consignor when he desires his agent to work hard to posh a new line of product in the market.
! CONSIGNOR'S BOOKS:
As already stated the goods sent by the consignor are sold on his behalf therefore he would iike to the profit earned or loss suffered from each different consignment. Before we discuss the entries in books of the consignor it is helpful to understand the nature of the following:
tNSIGNMENT ACCOUNT:
This is by nature a profit & Loss Account. One separate account is devoted to each different signment with the heading "Consignment to ... account". Actually the consignment account is a rieular Trading and Profit and Loss Account. All expenses specially related to the consignment must debited to the concerned consignment account whether incurred by the consignor or by the consignee all revenues (goods sold by the consignee and unsold goods with the consignee) should be credited to account. The difference between the two sides of this account will show the result of that particular iignment.
ISIGNEE'S ACCOUNT:
This is a personal account. It should be noted that the consignee is not the buyer. His personal it, therefore, is not debited when goods are sent to him. In cases where it is customary for the signce to send some money as an advance against the consignment the payment is merely an advance way of security) and not a part payment. Hence the advance received from the consignee should be :d to the credit side of consignee's personal account. In case part of the stock is still lying unsold the jrtionate amount of advance should be carried down as credit balance in consignee's personal account. :ase where consignor draws a bill on consignee the bill is known as a documentary bill.
