This account is debited with the value of benefits and ‘cash given to the branch and correspondingly credited with the value of benefits and cash received from the branch. Branch Ale Particulars Rs.

After all the relevant entries have been passed to this account as already detailed, both sides of this account should agree. Any difference represents surplus or deficiency of stock and will be transferred to a stock discrepancy account The stock discrepancy account will be closed by transferring the loading to branch stock adjustment account and the balance to branch profit & loss A/c, 2. Branch Stock Adjustment A/c: This account will be credited with the Stock Reserve A/c for the loading included in the opening branch stock (at selling price). Similarly, this account is debited with the Stock Reserve A/c for loading included in the closing branch stock. The difference remaining in this account (after all the relevant entries have been passed) represents gross profit/loss at branch and will be transferred to branch Profit & Loss Alc.

In case of (A) (I) (b & c) Accounting Entries in the books of Head Office: The branch account will be prepared on the same line as discussed earlier, but as goods are supplig’to the branch at loaded price. (1) ‘Opening stock, (2) goods sent to branch, (3) goods ret ly branch and (4) closing stock will be recorded in the branch account at this price. Hen ‘der to ascertain the true proft or loss at branch it will be necessary to eliminate the loads ing down these items to cost level. For this purpose the following adju: ‘will be made: 1. | For load on Goods sent to Brands Goods Sent to Branch A/c QS Dr XXX To Branch Alc SS 2. | For load on Goods returned by Branch to H.0.

The main advantage in this method is that, it is easy to prepare and understand In_case of (A) (l) (b & c) {iv}: Without writing up a Branch Stock and Branch Adjustment ‘Account, it is also practicable to record alll the relevant figures only in one account, by having two separate columns, one to show the value of goods sent out to branch at cost, entries wherein will be part of the double entry system and in second column memorandum entries in respect of the value of the same stock at the selling price. Under such a method, while the first ‘column would disclose the amount of gross profit and the value of stock carried forward at cost the second column would not disclose profit or loss, but would balance by including therein the value of closing stock at selling price provided that there has been no physical loss of stocks. IPCC_Advanced Accounting_37e_Branch Accounts. 191 Ph: 9885125025/26 [Link] Distinction between Wholesale Profit & Retail profit at Branch: In order to know whether self-retailing through branches is more profitable than wholesaling, it is necessary to make a distinction between wholesale profit and retail profit. The true profit of a branch can, therefore, be determined by charging it with the wholesale price of goods sent and crediting the head office trading account with the same amount, Since closing stock of branch, in such a case, will be valued at wholesale price it will be necessary to create a provision for unrealised profit ‘on stock by debiting the head office Profit & Loss A/c. For E.g.: Let the cost of an Article be Rs.100, wholesale price be Rs.140 and retail price be Rs.150. If itis sold through a retail branch, the profit earned will be Rs.50. But the true profit of the branch is, however, Rs.10 only, because Rs.40 could have been earned even without having the branch i.e. by selling it on wholesale basis to others.

Similarly, in head office books the same should be debited to branch fixed assets account and credited to Branch A/c. 2. Regarding Inter-Branch Transactions: Where there are number of branches, inter-branch transactions are likely to take place, e.g., cash or goods sent by one branch to another or expenses incurred by one branch on behalf of another.

Ale the H.0. Alc Prepare a BIS) Explanation: At the end of each financial year the branch prepares a trial balance and proceeds to close its books of accounts. The subject of closing the books consists of two activities: (a) Closing of Revenue accounts; (b) Closing of Asset & Liability accounts. Closing of Revenue Accounts: Two different methods may be applied for closing the revenue accounts. First method: Under this method the branch simply trans{@is the individual balance of various revenue accounts to the H.O. Alc, thereby closing th lue accounts. The entries will be as follows 1. | For debit balances of revenue items: Head Office A/c &S Dr XXX To Sundry Revenue _Alc’s. XXX 2. | For credit balances of revenu ‘Sundry Revenue A/c's Or XXX To Head Office Ae XXX Second method: Under this method, the branch prepares its own Trading and Profit & Loss Alc and transfers only the Net Profit or Loss (instead of all the revenue balances) to the H.O. Alc in the same way as Profit or Loss is transferred to Capital A/c in an ordinary business. The revenue accounts are thus closed, and the Profit or Loss transferred to the H.O. A/c. Closing of Asset & Liability Accounts: The balances of Assets & Liabilities may or may not be transferred to the H.0. books. If it is decided to transfer them, the under mentioned entries will be passed to close the accounts in the branch books: 1. | For Assets: Head Office A/c To Sundry Assets Alc 2. | For Liabilities: ‘Sundry Liabilities A/c To Head Office Ac Or Dr After such transfer, the H.O. A/c in branch books will have nil balance. Note: 1. At the commencement of the next accounting period it is necessary to restore the balance of Assets & Liabilities in the branch books by passing a reverse entry, 2. If, however, these are not transferred, there will remain a balance in H.O. A/c equal to the net assets (i.e. assets less liabilities). Thus, in this case, the branch may prepare a Balance Sheet IPCC_Advanced Accounting_37e_Branch Accounts. 200 No.4 for CAICWA & MECICEC MASTER MINDS ) H.0.

This is because exchange ra currencies due to international deman\ complete record of business transacted operate. Thus problems of incorporating translation of foreign currency into Indian \dian rupees is not stable in relation to foreign ‘supply effects on various currencies. Accounting for Foreign Branches: For the purpose of accounting, AS 11 (revised 2003) classifies the foreign branches may be classified into two types 1. Integral Foreign Operation; 2. Non- Integral Foreign Operation 4. Integral Foreign Operation (IFO): It is a foreign operation, the activities of which are an integral part of those of the reporting enterprise. The business of IFO is carried on as if it were an extension of the reporting enterprise's operations. Generally, IFO carries on business in a single foreign currency, ie., of the country where it is located. For example, sale of goods imported from the reporting enterprise and remittance of proceeds to the reporting enterprise 2. Non - Integral Foreign Operation (NFO): It is a foreign operation that is not an Integral Foreign Operation. The business of a NFO is carried on in a substantially independent way by accumulating cash and other monetary items, incurring expenses, generating income and arranging borrowing in its local currency. An NFO may also enter into transactions in foreign currencies, including transactions in the reporting currency. An example of NFO may be production in a foreign currency out of the resources available in such country independent of the reporting enterprise Techniques for foreign Currency Translation: 1. Integral Foreign Operation (IFO): Following are the standard recommendations for foreign currency translation IPCC_Advanced Accounting_37e_Branch Accounts. 208 No.4 for CAICWA & MECICEC MASTER MINDS ) a. All revenue accounts of IFO be translated at the rate prevailing on the date of transaction. This will require date wise details of the transaction entered by that operation together with the rates. Weekly or monthly average rate is permitted if there are no significant variations in the rate except opening stock (op. rate), closing stock (Cl. Rate), depreciation on fixed assets (rate prevailing on the date of acquisition of fixed assets), goods received from HO(to be substituted with the value of goods sent to branch in the books of HO subject to the condition that there is no Goods in transit), b. Translation at the balance sheet date i, Monetary items at closing rate. ii, Non-monetary items: The cost and depreciation of the tangible fixed assets is translated using the exchange rate at the date of purchase of the asset if asset is, carried at cost. The cost of inventories is translated at the exchange rates that existed when the cost of inventory was incurred and realizable value is translated applying exchange rate when realizable value is determined which is generally closing rate iv. Exchange difference arising on the translation of the financial statement of integral foreign operation should be charged to profit and loss account. 2. Non-Integral Foreign Operation(NFO): Accounts of non-integral foreign operation are translated using the following principles: a, Balance sheet items i.e. Assets and Liabiliti Apply closing exchange rate. Weekly or moj no significant variations in the rate exce However, accounting standard alld@ls c. Resulting exchange difference Qt reserve" until the disposal of "ne monetary and non-monetary erage rate is permitted if there are ing stock(op. rate), closing stock(cl.
