16. This example begins on page 229 in your text. On June 1, 20X6, Quality Lawn Mowers purchases 100 lawn mowers for $150 each on account from Black & Decker.

17. Here’s the invoice….. This is the Invoice Date This is the Invoice Amount This information is needed to record the purchase of inventory

18. The journal entry to record the purchase of inventory….

19. The Purchase of Inventory is restricted to the Balance Sheet Assume the Initial Investment by shareholders was $100,000 cash.

20. Goods in Transit These are goods on board a truck, train, ship, or plane at the end of the period.

30. Purchase Discounts 2/10 net 30 If paid within 10 days of invoice Take a 2% discount Are Discounts for Early Payment Otherwise, total is due within 30 days

31. Payment Terms Take a 1% discount if paid within 10 days, otherwise entire balance is due in 30 days. o Are included on the Invoice o To encourage prompt payment

32. Purchase Discounts Notice that the Payable Balance is now $0 Balance Owed = $14,700 $14,700 * 1% = $147 $14,700 minus $147 = $14,553

33. Notice that the Cost of the Inventory equals the sum of the cash payments. $14,896

34. Inventory T account $14,896 ÷ 98 units = $152 per mower

35. All transactions related to the Acquisition of inventory have been restricted to the Balance Sheet

36. As Assets are consumed, they are recorded as expenses on the Income Statement…. Balance Sheet Income Statement Supplies Supplies Expense Prepaid Insurance Insurance Expense Prepaid Rent Rent Expense

37. As Inventory is consumed, it is expensed as Cost of Goods Sold. It will be recorded as Inventory Expense? So as Inventory is consumed… It is subtracted on the Multiple- Step Income Statement What’s a Multiple Step Income Statement?!! Yes, but the Expense is called “Cost of Goods Sold”

38. Why is it called a Multiple-Step Income Statement? Because rather than taking total revenues and subtracting total expenses in a single step: We “Step our way down” to Net Income Revenues Subtract Something and Calculate a subtotal Subtract something else, Calculate another subtotal, etc. Each subtotal will provide important information.

39. Multiple-Step Income Statement Net Sales - Cost of Goods Sold = Gross Profit - Operating Expenses = Income from Operations - Other Expenses + Other Revenues = Net Income ← Amount Customer pays for the goods ← Amount the Company paid for the goods ← This is our markup! ← Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ← Profitability of our Core Business ← Profitability of Peripheral Activities ← Transferred to Statement of Retained Earnings

45. Reporting Sales and Cost of Goods Sold Each mower sold for $400. Each unit cost $152. That’s a $248 markup per unit.

46. But our customer isn’t completely happy…. Sales Returns and Allowances is a contra-revenue account. Its purpose is to reduce sales, and provide more detailed information on the Income Statement.

47. Reporting Sales Returns and Allowances Sales Returns and Allowances is subtracted from Sales In the Calculation of Net Sales It allows the reader to know how content the customers are with the product. They reduced the price by $100 to make me happy!

48. We offered our customer payment terms of 2/10 net 30 to encourage prompt payment Notice that the Receivable Balance is now $0 $3,900 * 2% = $78 Receivable Balance = $3,900 $3,900 - $78 = $3,822

51. Appendix – PERIODIC INV.

52. Perpetual Inventory System Continuous “perpetual” accounting records are kept to track the Sales transaction AND the Cost of the Goods Sold.  Better tracking of item availability, on hand, on order 2 journal entries for a sale

53. Periodic Inventory System No tracking Inventory just counted “periodically” to see what is on hand. 1 journal entry for sale

54. Sales Revenues - Under a Periodic System ONLY 1 entry is made for each sale one to record sale

55. Key difference between periodic and perpetual inventory… is the point at which the costs of goods sold is computed.

57. Companies that use periodic inventory take a physical count to... zdetermine ending inventory zcompute cost of goods sold Companies that use perpetual inventory must take a physical inventory to check accuracy of “book inventory” to actual inventory.
