CHAPTER 5 ACCOUNTING FOR MERCHANDISING OPERATIONS CHAPTER STUDY OBJECTIVES 1. Identify the differences between a service enterprise and a merchandiser. Because of inventory, a merchandiser has sales revenue, cost of goods sold, and gross profit. To account for inventory, a merchandiser must choose between a perpetual inventory system and a periodic inventory system. 2. Explain the entries for purchases under a perpetual inventory system. The Merchandise Inventory account is debited for all purchases of merchandise, freight-in, and other costs, and it is credited for purchase discounts and purchase returns and allowances. 3. Explain the entries for sales revenues under a perpetual inventory system. When inventory is sold, Accounts Receivable (or Cash) is debited and Sales is credited for the selling price of the merchandise. At the same time, Cost of Goods Sold is debited, and Merchandise Inventory is credited for the cost of the inventory items sold. 4. Explain the steps in the accounting cycle for a merchandiser. Each of the required steps in the accounting cycle for a service enterprise applies to a merchandiser. A work sheet is again an optional step. Under a perpetual inventory system, the Merchandise Inventory account must be adjusted to agree with the physical count. 5. Distinguish between a multiple-step and a single-step income statement. A multiple- step income statement shows numerous steps in determining net income, including nonoperating activities sections. In a single-step income statement, all data are classified under two categories, revenues or expenses, and net income is determined by one step. 6. Explain the computation and importance of gross profit. Gross profit is computed by subtracting cost of goods sold from net sales. Gross profit represents the merchandising profit of a company. The amount and trend of gross profit are closely watched by management and other interested parties. 7. Determine cost of goods sold under a periodic inventory system. The steps in determining cost of goods sold are (a) record the purchases of merchandise, (b) determine the cost of goods purchased, and (c) determine the cost of goods on hand at the beginning and end of the accounting period. a 8. Prepare the entries for purchases and sales of inventory under a periodic inventory system. In recording purchases, entries are required for (a) cash and credit purchases, (b) purchase returns and allowances, (c) purchase discounts, and (d) freight costs. In recording sales, entries are required for (a) cash and credit sales, (b) sales returns and allowances, and (c) sales discounts. a 9. Prepare a work sheet for a merchandiser. The steps in preparing a work sheet for a merchandiser are the same as they are for a service company. The unique accounts for a merchandiser are Merchandise Inventory, Sales, Sales Returns and Allowances, Sales Discounts, and Cost of Goods Sold.

Accounting for Merchandising Operations Accounts Receivable ................................................ 1,600 Ex. 138 Dan Stark is a new accountant with Utley Company. Utley purchased merchandise on account for $9,000. The credit terms are 2/10, n/30. Dan has talked with the company's banker and knows that he could earn 10% on any money invested in the company's savings account. Instructions (a) Should Dan pay the invoice within the discount period or should he keep the $9,000 in the savings account and pay at the end of the credit period? Support your recommendation with a calculation showing which action would be best. (b) If Dan forgoes the discount, it may be viewed as paying an interest rate of 2% for the use of $9,000 for 20 days. Calculate the annual rate of interest that this is equivalent to. Solution 138 (10 min.) Dan should pay the invoice within the discount period to save $130: (a) Discount of 2% on $9,000 $180 Interest received on $9,000 (for 20 days at 10%) 50 ($9,000 × 10% × 20 ÷ 360) Savings by taking the discount $130 (b) The equivalent annual interest rate is: 2% × 360 ÷ 20 = 36%. Ex. 139 (a) Adler Company purchased merchandise on account from Office Suppliers for $65,000, with terms of 2/10, n/30. During the discount period, Adler returned some merchandise and paid $58,800 as payment in full. Adler uses a perpetual inventory system. Prepare the journal entries that Adler Company made to record: (1) the purchase of merchandise. (2) the return of merchandise. (3) the payment on account. (b) Boggs Company sold merchandise to Wilsey Company on account for $53,000 with credit terms of ?/10, n/30. The cost of the merchandise sold was $31,800. During the discount period, Wilsey Company returned $3,000 of merchandise and paid its account in full (minus the discount) by remitting $49,000 in cash. Both companies use a perpetual inventory system. Prepare the journal entries that Boggs Company made to record: (1) the sale of merchandise. (2) the return of merchandise. (3) the collection on account. 5 - 19
Test Bank for Financial Accounting, Fifth Edition Solution 139 (20 min.) (a) To compute the amount due after returns but before the discount, divide $58,800 by .98 (100% – 2%). $58,800 ÷ .98 = $60,000. Subtract $60,000 from $65,000 to determine that $5,000 of merchandise was returned. (1) Merchandise Inventory ......................................................... 65,000 Accounts Payable ....................................................... 65,000 (2) Accounts Payable ................................................................ 5,000 Merchandise Inventory ................................................ 5,000 (3) Accounts Payable ................................................................ 60,000 Merchandise Inventory ................................................ 1,200 Cash ........................................................................... 58,800 (b) Wilsey Company returns $3,000 of merchandise and owes $50,000 to Boggs Company. $49,000 ÷ $50,000 = .98 100% – 98% = 2% The missing discount percentage is 2%. $50,000 × 2% = $1,000 sales discount. $50,000 – $1,000 = $49,000 cash received on account.

Test Bank for Financial Accounting, Fifth Edition SHORT-ANSWER ESSAY QUESTIONS S-A E 166 A merchandiser frequently has a need to use contra accounts related to the sale of goods. Identify the contra accounts that have normal debit balances and explain why they are not considered expenses. Solution 166 The contra accounts that have normal debit balances are Sales Discounts and Sales Returns and Allowances. These accounts have debit balances but are not expenses because they are adjustments of sales, not operating, selling, or administrative expenses. They are an adjustment of the inflow from the sale of goods, rather than a cost used to help earn revenue. S-A E 167 In a single-step income statement, all data are classified under two categories: (1) Revenues, or (2) Expenses. If the income statement is recast in a multiple-step format, what additional information or intermediate components of income would be presented if the company uses a periodic inventory system? Solution 167 The items reported in a multiple-step income statement that are not reported in a single-step income statement are: gross revenues as well as net revenues, the computation of cost of goods sold using beginning and ending inventories, purchases (gross and net), gross profit, detailed selling and administrative expenses, income from operations, and other revenues and gains, and other expenses and losses. S-A E 168 (Ethics) Grider Corporation manufactures electronic components for use in many consumer products. Their raw materials are purchased literally from all over the world. Depending on the country involved, purchase terms vary widely. Some suppliers, for example, require full prepayment, while others are content to receive payment within six months of receipt of the goods. Because of this situation, Grider never closes its books until at least ten days after month end. In this way, it can sort out ownership of goods in transit, and document which goods were received by month end, and which were not. Sue Rush, a new accountant, was asked to record about $50,000 in inventory as having been received before the previous month ended. She argued that the shipping documents clearly showed that the goods were actually received on the 8th of the current month. Her boss, busy with month-end reports, curtly tells Sue to check the shipping terms. She did so, and found the notation "FOB shipper's dock" on the document. She hadn't seen that particular notation before, but she reasoned that if the selling company considered it shipped when it reached their dock, Grider should consider it received when it reached Grider's dock. She did not record the sale until after month end. 5 - 36

Accounting for Merchandising Operations Required: 1. Why are accountants concerned with the timing in the recording of purchases? 2. Was there a violation of ethical standards here? Explain. Solution 168 1. Accountants are concerned with timing because they seek to make sure that sales are recorded in the proper period so that revenues and expenses are properly matched; to make sure that goods recorded as owned by the company actually are owned as of the last date of the period; and to make certain that sales recorded have been actually completed. 2. The only ethical principle that may be involved is one of competence. Sue does not appear to know enough about reading shipping documents to make a proper determination of ownership. The goods were owned by Grider as soon as they left the shipper's dock. Otherwise, the goods would have been owned by no one while in transit. It does not appear that Sue compromised her integrity or that she sought some sort of gain from her mistake. It does seem likely that she should have known how to better interpret the shipping documents. S-A E 169 (Communication) Mary Stine and Jane Kohl, two salespersons in adjoining territories, regularly compete for bonuses. During the last month, their dollar volume of sales, on which the bonuses are based, was nearly equal. On the last day of the month, both made a large sale. Both orders were shipped on the last day of the month and both were received by the customer on the fifth of the following month. Mary's sale was FOB shipping point, and Jane's was FOB destination. The company "counts" sales for purposes of calculating bonuses on the date that ownership passes to the purchaser. Mary's sale was therefore counted in her monthly total of sales, Jane's was not. Jane is quite upset. She has asked you to just include it, or to take Mary's off as well. She also has told you that you are being unethical for allowing Mary to get a bonus just for choosing a particular shipping method. Write a memo to Jane. Explain your position. Solution 169 M E M O TO: Jane Kohl FROM: Martha King, Accounting RE: Sales Bonuses DATE: June 15, 200x As you know, sales bonuses are based upon the revenue generated by each salesperson. Your total sales for the month was $100,000. This total does not include the $20,000 sale you made May 31 because of the policy to count sales on the date that title transfers to the customer. I can understand your being upset that this large sale was not counted, while someone else's sale on the same date was counted, because of the shipping terms. However, I am sure you agree that the policy is not unethical, but it is instead more fair than our trying to make a determination in the midst of month-end closing. 5 - 37
