Two types of systems for maintaining inventory records — perpetual
system or periodic system.
8 LotInventory Cost Flow
Perpetual System
1. Purchases of merchandise are debited to Inventory.
2. Freight-in is debited to Inventory. Purchase returns and
allowances and purchase discounts are credited to Inventory.
3. Cost of goods sold is debited and Inventory is credited for
each sale.
4. Subsidiary records show quantity and cost of each type of
inventory on hand.
The perpetual inventory system provides a continuous record of the
balance in both the Inventory and Cost of Goods Sold accounts.
te LotInventory Cost Flow
Periodic System
1. Purchases of merchandise are debited to Purchases.
2. Ending Inventory determined by physical count.
3. Calculation of Cost of Goods Sold:
Beginning inventory $ 100,000
Purchases, net + 800,000
Goods available for sale 900,000
Ending inventory - 125,000
Cost of goods sold $ 775,000

Comparing Perpetual and Periodic Systems
Illustration: Fesmire Company had the following transactions
during the current year.
Beginning inventory 100 units at $6 = $600
Purchases 900 units at $6 = $5,400
Sales 600 units at $12 =
Ending inventory 400 units at $6 =

Inventory Cost Flow
Illustration: Assume that at the end of the reporting period, the
perpetual inventory account reported an inventory balance of
$4,000. However, a physical count indicates inventory of $3,800 is
actually on hand. The entry to record the necessary write-down is
as follows.
Inventory Over and Short 200
Inventory 200
Note: Inventory Over and Short adjusts Cost of Goods Sold. In
practice, companies sometimes report Inventory Over and Short in
the “Other income and expense” section of the income statement.

Inventory Issues
Inventory Control
All companies need periodic verification of the inventory records
@ by actual count, weight, or measurement, with
counts compared with detailed inventory records.
Companies should take the physical inventory
near the end of their fiscal year,
@ to properly report inventory quantities in their annual
accounting reports.
LotInventory Issues
815
Determining Cost of Goods Sold
Companies must allocate the cost of all the goods available for
sale (or use) between the goods that were sold or used and
those that are still on hand.
Beginning inventory, Jan. 1 $100,000
Cost of goods acquired or produced during the year 800,000
Total cost of goods available for sale 900,000
Ending inventory, Dec. 31 200,000

Goods Included in Inventory
Acompany recognizes inventory and accounts payable at
the time it controls the asset.
Passage of title is often used to determine control because
the rights and obligations are established legally.
Lo2Goods Included In Inventory
Goods in Transit
Example: LG (KOR) determines ownership by applying the
“passage of title” rule.
¢@ If asupplier ships goods to LG f.0.b. shipping point, title
passes to LG when the supplier delivers the goods to the
common carrier, who acts as an agent for LG.
¢ Ifthe supplier ships the goods f.o.b. destination, title
passes to LG only when it receives the goods from the
common carrier.
“Shipping point” and “destination” are often designated by a
particular location, for example, f.o.b. Seoul.
817 Lo28-18
Goods Included In Inventory
Consigned Goods
Example: Williams Art Gallery (the consignor) ships various art
merchandise to Sotheby’s Holdings (USA) (the consignee), who
acts as Williams’ agent in selling the consigned goods.
Sotheby's agrees to accept the goods without any liability,
except to exercise due care and reasonable protection from
loss or damage, until it sells the goods to a third party.
¢@ When Sotheby's sells the goods, it remits the revenue, less a
selling commission and expenses incurred, to Williams.
Goods out on consignment remain the property of the consignor
(Williams).
Lo28-19
Goods Included In Inventory
Sales with Repurchase Agreements
Example: Hill Enterprises transfers (“sells”) inventory to Chase,
Inc. and simultaneously agrees to repurchase this merchandise at
a specified price over a specified period of time. Chase then uses
the inventory as collateral and borrows against it.
¢@ Essence of transaction is that Hill Enterprises is financing its
inventory—and retains control of the inventory—even though it
transferred to Chase technical legal title to the merchandise.
Often described in practice as a “parking transaction.”
Hill should report the inventory and related liability on its books.
Lo28-20
Goods Included In Inventory
Sales with Rights of Return
Example: Quality Publishing Company sells textbooks to Campus
Bookstores with an agreement that Campus may return for full
credit any books not sold. Quality Publishing should recognize
a) Revenue from the textbooks sold that it expects will not be
returned.
b) Arefund liability for the estimated books to be returned.
c) Anasset for the books estimated to be returned which reduces
the cost of goods sold.
If Quality Publishing is unable to estimate the level of returns, it
should not report any revenue until the returns become predictive.
Loza2
Costs Included In Inventory
Product Costs
Costs directly connected with bringing the goods to the buyer’s
place of business and converting such goods to a salable condition.
Cost of purchase includes all of:
1. The purchase price.
2. Import duties and other taxes.
3. Transportation costs.
4
Handling costs directly related to the acquisition of the goods.
Lo2Costs Included In Inventory
Period Costs
Costs that are indirectly related to the acquisition or production
of goods.
Period costs such as
¢@ selling expenses and,
general and administrative expenses
are not included as part of inventory cost.
8-22 Lo2Costs Included In Inventory
Treatment of Purchase Discounts
Purchase or trade discounts are reductions in the selling prices
granted to customers.
IASB requires these discounts to be recorded as a reduction
from the cost of inventories.

Describe the LIFO cost flow assumption
Under IFRS, LIFO is not permitted for financial reporting
purposes.
Nonetheless, LIFO is permitted for financial reporting purposes in
the United States, it is permitted for tax purposes in some
countries, and its use can result in significant tax savings.
In this appendix, we provide an expanded discussion of LIFO
inventory procedures.
