A sale occurs when the ownership of goods and the consequent risk relating to these goods are passed to the customer in return for consideration, usually cash. In normal circumstances the physical possession of the goods is also transferred at the same time. A sale does not occur when a company places goods at the shop of a dealer with the clear understanding that payment need be made only after the goods are sold failing which they may be returned. In such a case, the ownership and risks are not transferred to the dealer nor any consideration paid.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompanies do give trade discounts and other incentive discounts to customers to entice them to buy their products. Sales should be accounted for after deducting these discounts. However, cash discounts given for early payment are a finance expense and should be shown as an expense and not deducted from sales. There are many companies which deduct excise duty and other levies from sales. There are others who show this as an expense. It is preferable to deduct these from sales since the sales figures would then reflect the actual mark-up made by the company on its cost of production.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther Income\u003c/strong\u003e – Companies may also receive income from sources other than from the sale of their products or the provision of services.

The calculation of the cost of the raw materials of production requires an additional clarification. Most companies maintain an inventory of raw goods that are depleted and restocked according to the demands of production. In general, the items of inventory of a particular raw good are indifferentiable from each other (i.e., the screws, nuts, and bolts in inventory are identical to the new ones purchased) though the price the company pays for them may change over time (usually increasing). The difficulty comes in calculating the cost of the raw materials used in the production of the particular goods sold in the current period. If all the screws are identical, how do you know if you used the one that cost you $0.05 or $0.06? This problem of inventory accounting is solved by using one of three standard methods:\u003c/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Last in, first out (LIFO): \u003c/strong\u003eAs inventory is used in production, the assumption is that the most recently acquired inventory is consumed first. If the cost of the raw materials of production increases with time, this method will result in a higher cost of goods sold (and therefore lower profit).\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e First in, first out (FIFO):\u003c/strong\u003e The cost of the inventory consumed assumes the oldest inventory is used first. With increasing inventory prices, this will result in a lower cost of goods sold (and therefore higher profit).\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Average price: \u003c/strong\u003eThe cost of inventory is averaged between existing inventory and new purchases, resulting in a cost of goods sold that is usually somewhere between LIFO and FIFO. If there is significant variation in material costs, there can be substantial differences in the valuation of the consumed inventory under FIFO and LIFO methods. (These differences will also impact the balance sheet in the value of inventory.) To facilitate comparison between companies that use different inventory valuation methods, companies that use FIFO inventory valuation are required under GAAP to disclose a LIFO Reserve in a footnote on the balance sheet, which states the difference between the FIFO and LIFO valuations of inventory\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEmployee Costs\u003c/strong\u003e – The costs of employment are accounted for under this head and would include wages, salaries, bonus, gratuity, contributions made to provident and other funds, welfare expenses, and other employee related expenditure.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOperating \u0026amp; Other Expenses\u003c/strong\u003e – All other costs incurred in running a company are called operating and other expenses, and include.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eSelling expenses \u0026#8211; The cost of advertising, sales commissions, sales promotion expenses and other sales related expenses.\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdministration expenses \u0026#8211; Rent of offices and factories, municipal taxes, stationery, telephone and telex costs, electricity charges, insurance, repairs, motor maintenance, and all other expenses incurred to run a company.\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eOthers \u0026#8211; These include costs that are not strictly administration or selling expenses, such as donations made, losses on the sale of fixed assets or investments, miscellaneous expenditure and the like\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInterest \u0026amp; Finance Charges\u003c/strong\u003e – A company has to pay interest on money it borrows.

This allows for the distinction between how much the company earns from performing its core business (e.g., manufacturing and selling widgets) versus other sources of revenue that are not part of this core business (e.g., interest earned on credit extended to widget buyers). The sum of the operating income and non-operating income represents the total earnings of the company from all sources, less the costs of production (operating expenses). \u003cstrong\u003eThis is referred to as the earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) or pretax operating profit \u003c/strong\u003eand is an important number because it isolates the revenues earned by the company from the impact of its choice of financing (the particular mixture of debt and equity used to fund its operations).

In practice, only a portion of earnings (if any) are paid out in dividends.

Corresponding to that on the right hand side we have some of the standard Balance Sheet items.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo begin with, consider the \u003cstrong\u003eRevenue from Sales\u003c/strong\u003e. When a company makes a sale it incurs expenses. For example if the company undertakes an advertisement campaign to spread awareness about its products, then naturally the company has to spend cash on the campaign. The money spent tends to decrease the cash balance. Also, if the company makes a sale on credit\u003cstrong\u003e, the Receivables (Accounts Receivables) go higher\u003c/strong\u003e. \u003cstrong\u003eOperating expenses\u003c/strong\u003e includes purchase of raw material, finished goods and other similar expenses. When a company incurs these expenses, to manufacture goods two things happen. One, if the purchase is on credit (which invariably is) then the \u003cstrong\u003eTrade payables (accounts payable) go higher\u003c/strong\u003e. Two, \u003cstrong\u003ethe Inventory level\u003c/strong\u003e also gets affected. Whether the inventory value is high or low, depends on how much time the company needs to sell its products. When companies purchase Tangible assets or invest in Brand building exercises (Intangible assets) the company spreads the purchase value of the asset over the economic useful life of the asset. This tends to increase the \u003cstrong\u003eDepreciation\u003c/strong\u003e mentioned in the Balance sheet. Do remember the Balance sheet is prepared on a flow basis, hence the Depreciation in balance sheet is accumulated year on year. Please note, Depreciation in Balance sheet is referred to as the Accumulated depreciation.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther Income\u003c/strong\u003e includes monies received in the form of interest income, sale of subsidiary companies, rental income etc. Hence, when companies undertake investment activities, the other incomes tend to get affected. As and when the company undertakes Debt (it could be short term or long term), the company obviously spends money towards financing the debt. The money that goes towards financing the debt is called the \u003cstrong\u003eFinance Cost/Borrowing\u003c/strong\u003e Cost. Hence, when debt increases the finance cost also increases and vice versa.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinally, as you may recall the \u003cstrong\u003eProfit after tax (PAT) adds to the surplus of the company which is a part of the Shareholders equity.\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/div\u003e\u003c/div\u003e\u003c/div\u003e\u003cscript
