    This is one of the most helpful and probably the only video with a decent example of the perpetual inventory system, so Thank You!

      @Finn Esteban i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now.
      Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

    I am an accounting tutor at Tarrant County College in Fort Worth Texas, this video was very helpful today working with a student. I like how you used the buyer and seller side of the process. Thank you for making these types of videos.

      I am so happy to hear that! We are in the process of creating blank sheets to go along with each video so that they can be printed and used as follow along resources. The buyer/seller entry ones are scheduled to come out within the next two weeks. www.TLCTutoringCompany.com
      Thank you for all you do as a tutor!

    What does FOB shipping point mean?
    On 13th May, for buyer journal entries, if we credited the Merchandise Inventory, does it mean the cost we paid is less but the value of merchandise inventory at hand is still $3000? I don’t understand why you treated it as inventory decrease instead of revenue.

  • @chigoziemonyekawa2211

    @TheTyisawesome Před 5 lety +1

    How to record sales for the month in the journal???
    Ex:
    May 16 - Cash sales for the first half of the month: retail value of $75,000 and a cost of $29,000

    • @accountinghelp
      @accountinghelp  Před 5 lety +3

      We have two important elements here: The sales price of $75,000 and the cost of merchandise sold of $29,000.
      First entry: Sales price
      Cash Dr. 75,000 (to record that cash is going up)
      Sales Cr. 75,000 (to record that sales is going up)
      Second entry: What the seller originally paid for the merchandise now being sold (the *cost*)
      Cost of merchandise sold Dr. 29,000 (to record the cost of what we are currently selling)
      Inventory Cr. 29,000 (to record the decrease in our inventory account -- we are selling what we previously owned)

  • @ItsEmilyEliza

    So if it was FOB Destination, would we debit Freight out and credit Cash?

    On may 13 at buyers perspective
    Why is it called as merchandise inventory rather than purchase discount?

    • @kodomochan32
      @kodomochan32 Před 5 lety +1

      Because the video uses the Perpetual Inventory System.
      Under the Perpetual Inventory System, the account title 'Purchase Discounts' does not exist.

  • @Dis.changer
    @Dis.changer Před rokem

    So the buyer paid after the 10 day 2% discount. They didn't wait 30 days and pay net. But I really thought they wouldn't get the discount because they paid on the 13th.

    • @accountinghelp
      @accountinghelp  Před rokem

      They paid on the 13th, which is within the ten days, so they get the discount. The n/30 just means that the overall due date is 30 days.

  • @seokseok9683
    @seokseok9683 Před 5 lety +1

    Why is it merchandising inventory in the last transaction? Is it supposed to be a discount? A purchase discount? I dont understand because in my University this is what they taught us.

    • @accountinghelp
      @accountinghelp  Před 5 lety

      Generally, purchase discounts are usually used for the periodic method. :)

  • @scientist100
    @scientist100 Před 4 lety

    Doesn't this get confusing when multiple items are being entered as an inventory item and you'd probably need multiple category accounts for each for reconcile at posting?

    • @accountinghelp
      @accountinghelp  Před 4 lety

      Before we had amazing accounting software, we would use a dash and then some type of item code to differentiate between different types of merchandise. These days however we have inventory software. Once the transaction is entered, whether it be some type of purchase of a particular inventory item or the sale of a particular inventory item, the software handles the rest.

    • @scientist100
      @scientist100 Před 4 lety

      @@accountinghelp we use Made2Manage at work. Not really sure the working behind it but out accounting team does the closing for each month. The variances get checked weekly to reconcile those, etc. I dont know much but given that debits and credits should all equal, then I know how they can see there variances, etc.
