IMPORTANT NOTE NO 1Normally when goods bought or sold, it will affect the inventory account, either goods in (debit) or goods out (credit).
However, sometimes “goods in” maybe goods returned by the customers and “goods out” may comprise goods returned to suppliers.
Therefore, specific accounts need to be used:Sales a/c - goods sold to customer. (goods out – credit)Sales returns a/c - goods returned by customers.(Return inwards a/c) (goods in – debit)Purchases a/c - goods bought from suppliers. (goods in – debit)Purchases returns a/c – goods returned to suppliers(Return outwards a/c) (goods out – credit)
So far we have learned about three categories of accounts:1)Assets
Things owned by the business. Examples include premises , motor vehicle, inventory , trade receivable, bank, and cash.
All assets are debit entries because the business receives them in return for giving something else.
2)Liabilities Things owed (IOU) by the business. Examples include trade
payable, and loan.
All liabilities are credit entries because the business gives them IOUs in return for receiving goods or cash.
3)Capital Resources invested by the owner. Examples include cash
and motor vehicle. Capital is a credit entry because the business gives the ownership to the investor .
IMPORTANT NOTE NO 2
Another three categories:
4) Income Income arising from the business activities. Examples include sales, rental received, and interest received.
All income are credit entries because the business is giving goods or services in return for receiving cash/bank.
5) ExpensesDay to day running expenses of the business. Examples include purchases , wages, and general expenses.
All expenses are debit entries because the business is receiving goods or services by giving out cash/bank.
6) DrawingsAmount of resources taken out by the owner from the business. Examples include motor vehicle and cash.
All drawings are debit entries because the owner is reducing his ownership in the business.
Carriage Costs
Carriage cost is basically transportation cost.
There are two types of carriage costs:
1)Carriage inwards – Cost of transporting the goods from the supplier to the place of business.
2)Carriage outwards – Cost of transporting the goods from the place of business to the customer.
Both carriage costs are expenses. Therefore, both carriage costs are debit entries.
