  2. Learning objectives After you have studied this chapter, you should be able to: Explain the terms returns inwards, returns outwards, carriage inwards and carriage outwards Record returns inwards and returns outwards in the income statement

  3. Learning objectives (Continued) Explain the difference between the treatment of carriage inwards and carriage outwards in the income statement Explain why carriage inwards is treated as part of the cost of purchasing goods Explain why carriage outwards is not treated as part of the cost of purchasing goods Prepare an inventory account showing the entries for opening and closing inventory

  4. Learning objectives (Continued) Prepare an income statement and a statement of financial position containing the appropriate adjustments for returns, carriage and other items that affect the calculation of the cost of goods sold Explain why the costs of putting goods into a saleable condition should be charged to the trading account

  5. Returns inwards and outwards The sales account deals with goods sold. The returns inwards account deals with goods returned by customers. The purchases account deals with goods purchased. The returns outwards account deals with goods returned to the supplier. All four of these accounts need to be included in a profit calculation.

  6. Gross profit calculation

  7. The income statement

  8. Carriage When goods are delivered by suppliers or sent by customers the cost of transporting the goods is often an additional charge to the buyer – this charge is called ‘carriage’. When carriage is charged on goods purchased, it is called carriage inwards. When carriage is charged on goods sent out, it is called carriage outwards.

  9. Carriage in the accounts To ensure that the true cost of buying goods for resale is always included in the calculation of gross profit, carriage inwards is always added to the cost of purchases in the trading account. Carriage outwards is always entered in the profit and loss account section of the income statement. It is never included in the calculation of gross profit.

  15. Learning outcomes You should have now learnt: That returns inwards should be deducted from sales in the trading account That returns outwards should be deducted from purchases in the trading account That carriage inwards is shown as an expense item in the trading account That carriage outwards in shown as an expense in the profit and loss account

  16. Learning outcomes (Continued) How to prepare the inventory account and carry forward the balance from one period to the next That in the second and later years of a business, both opening and closing inventory are brought into the trading account That it is normal practice to show cost of goods sold as a separate figure in the trading account

  17. Learning outcomes (Continued) How to prepare an income statement that includes the adjustments for carriage inwards and both opening and closing inventory in the trading section and carriage outwards as an expense in the profit and loss section That expense items concerned with getting goods into a saleable condition are charged in the trading account That where there is import duty or insurance charged on goods purchased, these costs are treated as part of the cost of goods sold
