a p p e n d i x CPeriodic Inventory Systems for Merchandising Businesses
In this text, we emphasize the perpetual inventory system of accounting for pur-chases and sales of merchandise. Not all merchandise businesses, however, use per-petual inventory systems. For example, some managers/owners of small merchandisebusinesses, such as locally owned hardware stores, may feel more comfortable us-ing manually kept records. Because a manual perpetual inventory system is time-consuming and costly to maintain, the periodic inventory system is often used inthese cases.
Merchandise Transactions in a Periodic Inventory SystemIn a periodic inventory system, the revenues from sales are recorded when sales aremade in the same manner as in a perpetual inventory system. However, no attemptis made on the date of sale to record the cost of the merchandise sold. Instead, themerchandise inventory on hand at the end of the period is counted. This physicalinventory is then used to determine (1) the cost of merchandise sold during the pe-riod and (2) the cost of merchandise on hand at the end of the period.
In a periodic inventory system, purchases of inventory are recorded in a pur-chases account rather than in a merchandise inventory account. No attempt is madeto keep a detailed record of the amount of inventory on hand at any given time.
The purchases account is normally debited for the amount of the invoice beforeconsidering any purchases discounts. Purchases discounts are normally recorded ina separate purchases discounts account.1 The balance of this account is reportedas a deduction from the amount initially recorded in Purchases for the period. Thus,the purchases discounts account is viewed as a contra (or offsetting) account toPurchases.
Purchases returns and allowances are recorded in a similar manner as purchasesdiscounts. A separate account is used to keep a record of the amount of purchasesreturns and allowances during a period. Purchases returns and allowances are re-ported as a deduction from the amount initially recorded as Purchases. Like Pur-chases Discounts, the purchases returns and allowances account is a contra (oroffsetting) account to Purchases.
When merchandise is purchased FOB shipping point, the buyer is responsible forpaying the freight charges. In a periodic inventory system, freight charges paid whenpurchasing merchandise FOB shipping point are debited to Transportation In, FreightIn, or a similarly titled account.
To illustrate the recording of merchandise transactions in a periodic system, wewill use the following selected transactions for Taylor Co. We will also explain howthe transaction would have been recorded under a perpetual system.
June 5. Purchased $30,000 of merchandise on account from Owen Clothing, terms 2/10, n/30.
Purchases 30,000Accounts Payable—Owen Clothing 30,000
Under the perpetual inventory system, such purchases would be recorded in the mer-chandise inventory account at their cost, $30,000.
1Some businesses prefer to credit the purchases account. If this alternative is used, the balance of the purchases ac-count will be a net amount—the total purchases less the total purchases discounts for the period.

June 8. Returned merchandise purchased on account from Owen Clothing onJune 5, $500.
Accounts Payable—Owen Clothing 500Purchases Returns and Allowances 500
Under the perpetual inventory system, returns would be recorded as a credit to themerchandise inventory account at their cost of $500.
June 15. Paid Owen Clothing for purchase of June 5, less return of $500 anddiscount of $590 [($30,000 � $500) � 2%].
Accounts Payable—Owen Clothing 29,500Cash 28,910Purchases Discounts 590
Under a perpetual inventory system, a purchases discount account is not used. Insteadthe merchandise inventory account is credited for the amount of the discount, $590.
June 18. Sold merchandise on account to Jones Co., $12,500, 1/10, n/30. The cost ofthe merchandise sold was $9,000.
Accounts Receivable—Jones Co. 12,500Sales 12,500
The entry to record the sale is the same under both systems. Under the perpetual in-ventory system, the cost of merchandise sold and the reduction in merchandise in-ventory would also be recorded on the date of sale.
June 21. Received merchandise returned on account from Jones Co., $4,000. The cost of the merchandise returned was $2,800.
Sales Returns and Allowances 4,000Accounts Receivable—Jones Co. 4,000
The entry to record the sales return is the same under both systems. In addition, thecost of the merchandise returned would be debited to the merchandise inventory ac-count and credited to the cost of merchandise sold account under the perpetual in-ventory system.
June 22. Purchased merchandise from Norcross Clothiers, $15,000, terms FOBshipping point, 2/15, n/30, with prepaid transportation charges of $750 added to the invoice.
Purchases 15,000Transportation In 750
Accounts Payable—Norcross Clothiers 15,750
This entry is similar to the June 5 entry for the purchase of merchandise. Since thetransportation terms were FOB shipping point, the prepaid freight charges of $750must be added to the invoice cost of $15,000. Under the perpetual inventory system,the purchase is recorded in the merchandise inventory account at the cost of $15,750(invoice price plus transportation).
June 28. Received $8,415 as payment on account from Jones Co., less return ofJune 21 and less discount of $85 [($12,500 � $4,000) � 1%].
Cash 8,415Sales Discounts 85
Accounts Receivable—Jones Co. 8,500
66124_appC_C1-C14.qxd 11/10/03 7:45 PM Page C-2
Appendix C • Periodic Inventory Systems for Merchandising Businesses C-3
This entry is the same under the perpetual inventory system.
June 29. Received $19,600 from cash sales. The cost of the merchandise sold was $13,800.
Cash 19,600Sales 19,600
The entry to record the sale is the same under both systems. Under the perpetual in-ventory system, the cost of merchandise sold and the reduction in merchandise in-ventory would also be recorded on the date of sale.
The multiple-step income statement under the periodic inventory system is il-lustrated in Exhibit 1. The multiple-step income statement under a perpetual in-ventory system is similar, except that the cost of merchandise sold is reported asa single amount.
Chart of Accounts for a Periodic Inventory SystemExhibit 2 is the chart of accounts for NetSolutions when a periodic inventory sys-tem is used. The periodic inventory accounts related to merchandising transactionsare shown in color.
End-of-Period Procedures in a Periodic Inventory SystemThe end-of-period procedures are generally the same for the periodic and perpet-ual inventory systems. In the remainder of this appendix, we will discuss the dif-ferences in procedures for the two systems that affect the work sheet, the adjustingentries, and the closing entries. As the basis for illustrations, we will use the datafor NetSolutions, presented in Chapter 6.
Work SheetThe differences in the work sheet for a merchandising business that uses the periodicinventory system are highlighted in the work sheet for NetSolutions in Exhibit 3. Aswe illustrated earlier, accounts for purchases, purchases returns and allowances, pur-chases discounts, and transportation in are used in a periodic inventory system.
Under the periodic inventory system, the merchandise inventory account, through-out the accounting period, shows the inventory at the beginning of the period. Themerchandise inventory on January 1, 2007, $59,700, is a part of the merchandiseavailable for sale. At the end of the period, the beginning inventory amount in theledger is replaced with the ending inventory amount. To update the inventory ac-count, two adjusting entries are used.2 The first adjusting entry transfers the begin-ning inventory balance to Income Summary. This entry, shown below, has the effectof increasing the cost of merchandise sold and decreasing net income.
Dec. 31 Income Summary 59,700Merchandise Inventory 59,700
2Another method of updating the merchandise inventory account at the end of the period is called the closing method.This method adjusts the merchandise inventory through the use of closing entries. This method may not be appropriatefor use in computerized accounting systems. Since the financial statements are the same under both methods and sincecomputerized accounting systems are used by most businesses, the closing method is not illustrated.

Appendix C • Periodic Inventory Systems for Merchandising BusinessesC-4
After the first adjusting entry has been recorded and posted, the balance of themerchandise inventory account is zero. The second adjusting entry records the costof the merchandise on hand at the end of the period by debiting Merchandise In-ventory. Since the merchandise inventory at December 31, 2007, $62,150, is sub-tracted from the cost of merchandise available for sale in determining the cost of

merchandise sold, Income Summary is credited. This credit has the effect of de-creasing the cost of merchandise available for sale during the period, $587,455, bythe cost of the unsold merchandise. The second adjusting entry is shown below.
Dec. 31 Merchandise Inventory 62,150Income Summary 62,150
After the second adjusting entry has been recorded and posted, the balance ofthe merchandise inventory account is the amount of the ending inventory. The ac-counts for Merchandise Inventory and Income Summary after both entries have beenposted would appear in T account form as follows:
Merchandise Inventory
2007Jan. 1 Beginning inventory 59,700 Dec. 31 Beginning inventory 59,700Dec. 31 Ending inventory 62,150
Income Summary
Dec. 31 Beginning inventory 59,700 Dec. 31 Ending inventory 62,150
No separate adjusting entry can be made for merchandise inventory shrinkagein a periodic inventory system. This is because no perpetual inventory records areavailable to show what inventory should be on hand at the end of the period.

Appendix C • Periodic Inventory Systems for Merchandising Businesses C-7
One disadvantage of the periodic inventory system is that inventory shrinkage can-not be measured.3
Completing the Work SheetAfter all of the necessary adjustments have been entered on the work sheet, thework sheet is completed in the normal manner. An exception to the usual practiceof extending only account balances is Income Summary. Both the debit and creditamounts for Income Summary are extended to the Adjusted Trial Balance columns.Extending both amounts aids in the preparation of the income statement becausethe debit adjustment (the beginning inventory of $59,700) and the credit adjustment(the ending inventory of $62,150) are reported as part of the cost of merchandisesold.
The purchases, purchases discounts, purchases returns and allowances, and trans-portation in accounts are extended to the Income Statement Columns of the worksheet, since they are used in computing the cost of merchandise sold. You shouldnote that the two merchandise inventory amounts in Income Summary are extendedto the Income Statement columns. After all of the items have been extended to thestatement columns, the four columns are totaled and the net income or net loss isdetermined.
Financial StatementsThe financial statements for NetSolutions are essentially the same under both theperpetual and periodic inventory systems. The main difference is that the cost ofgoods is reported as a single amount under the perpetual system. Exhibit 1 illus-trates the manner in which cost of merchandise sold is reported in a multiple-stepincome statement when the periodic inventory system is used.4
Adjusting and Closing EntriesThe adjusting entries are the same under both inventory systems, except for mer-chandise inventory. As indicated previously, two adjusting entries for beginning andending merchandise inventory are necessary in a periodic inventory system.
The closing entries differ in the periodic inventory system in that there is no costof merchandise sold account to be closed to Income Summary. Instead, the pur-chases, purchases discounts, purchases returns and allowances, and transportationin accounts are closed to Income Summary.5 To illustrate, the adjusting and closingentries under a periodic inventory system for NetSolutions are shown at the top ofthe following pages.
3Any inventory shrinkage that does exist is part of the cost of merchandise sold and is reported on the income state-ment, since a smaller ending inventory is deducted from other merchandise available for sale.4The single-step income statement would be the same for both the perpetual and the periodic inventory systems.5The balance of Income Summary, after the merchandise inventory adjustments and the first two closing entries havebeen posted, is the net income or net loss for the period.
