Home Office and Branch Accounting
Companies may increase their volume of sales by establishing sales outlets in various areas.
These sales outlets may be a branch or an agency.
When a company operates a branch, the branch must maintain accounting records to facilitate
its reporting responsibility to the home office.
Problems dealing with Home Office and Branch Accounting appear in almost every CPA
examination. Candidates should be familiar with the problems involving the following:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Uses of the reciprocal accounts.
Preparation of a Reconciliation Statement.
Billing of Merchandise by Home Office to Branch above cost.
Preparation of Combined Financial Statements.
Uses of the Reciprocal Accounts
In recording inter-office transactions, two reciprocal accounts are used, namely, the Investment
in Branch (Branch Current) account used by the home office which is classified as an asset; and
the Home Office (HO Current account) used by the branch which is classified as a liability.
The reciprocal nature of the Investment in Branch and the Home Office accounts and the way in
which they are affected by various inter-office transactions are shown below:

Preparation of Reconciliation Statement
The balances of the two reciprocal accounts should at all times equal. If the balances of the
reciprocal accounts are not equal before the preparation of separate statement of financial
position, a reconciliation statement is to be prepared. This is done to determine the causes of
the inequality between the two accounts. The accounts are then adjusted to determine their
adjusted balances. The following are the usual causes that the candidate should take note:
1. Transactions have been recorded by the branch but not by the home office.
Downloaded by May Charisse Ranque (charisseranque16@gmail.com)
lOMoARcPSD|9886176
2. Transactions have been recorded by the home office but not by the branch.
3. Errors in recording have occurred in one or both books.
4. Transactions have not yet been recorded on either set of books.
Billing of Merchandise by Home office to Branch above Cost
Merchandise shipped to branch by the home office may be billed at an amount above cost.
Under this method of billing, the profit recognized by the branch will be less that its actual
profit, because its cost of goods sold is overstated insofar as the home office is concerned.
The problems involving billing of merchandise to branch above cost are the following
1. Computation of branch at inventory at cost.
2. Computation of the actual or true branch profit insofar as the home office is
concerned.
Computation of Branch Inventory at Cost
Candidates should use the following formula:
a. If branch are all acquired from the home office, the formula is:
Branch inventory acquired from home office at billed price
Divide by billing percentage of cost
Branch inventory at cost
Pxx
%
Pxx
b. If branch inventory includes merchandise acquired from outsiders, the formula is:
Branch inventory acquired from home office at cost:
Merchandise at billed price
Divide by billing percentage of cost
Add: inventory acquired from outsiders
Branch inventory at cost
Pxx
%
Pxx
xx
xx
Computation of Actual Branch Profit insofar as Home Office is Concerned
The actual or true branch insofar as the home office is concerned is computed as follows:
Branch profit (loss) as reported
Add: Overvaluation of branch cost of goods sold (Schedule 1)
Actual branch profit insofar as home office is concerned

Preparation of Combined Financial Statements
The balance sheets and the income statements of the home office and the branch must be
combined for external reporting purposes. Working papers are usually prepared to eliminate
accounts affected in recording inter-office transactions before financial statements are
prepared.
Candidates should remember the following working paper elimination procedures:
1. Eliminate reciprocal accounts.
2. Eliminate inter-company transfer accounts.
a. Shipment to Branch and Shipment from Home Office accounts.
b. Allowance for Overvaluation of Branch Inventory.
3. Eliminate the overvaluation in branch beginning inventory.
4. Eliminate the overvaluation in branch ending inventory.
Combined Statement of Financial Position. The reciprocal accounts “Investment in Branch” and
“Home Office” accounts are not presented as well as the Allowance for Overvaluation account.
Combined Statement of Comprehensive Income. The merchandise inventories, beginning and
ending inventories are presented at cost. The Shipment to Branch and Shipment from Home
Office accounts are not presented.
Transactions between Branches
Occasionally, branch operations require that merchandise or other assets be transferred from
one branch to another. A branch does not maintain a reciprocal account with another branch
but records the transfer in the Home Office account. For example, if Bicol Branch ships
merchandise to Laguna Branch, Bicol Branch debits Home Office account and credits
Inventories (assuming that the perpetual inventory system is used). Upon receipt of the
merchandise, Laguna Branch debits Inventories and credits Home Office account. The home
office records the transfer between branches by a debit to Investment in Laguna Branch and a
credit to Investment in Bicol Branch.

The transfer of merchandise from one branch to another does not increase the cost of
inventories by the freight costs incurred because of the indirect routing. The amount of freight
costs properly included in inventories at a branch is limited to the cost of shipping the
merchandise directly from the home office to its present location. Excess freight costs are
recognized as expenses of the home office.
Accounting System for Sales Agencies
An agency is simply an extension of the sales territories in which orders are received from
customers and then transmitted to the home office for shipping and billing. They do not have
merchandise available for sale, but they keep samples inventory.
A sales agency neither keeps a complete set of books nor uses a double-entry system of
accounts. Usually, a record of sales to customers and a list of cash payments supported by
vouchers are sufficient.
An imprest system is usually adopted by the home office for the working fund of the sales
agency.

31. In the books of Bulacan branch (sending branch) the inter-branch transfer should be treated
as if it was returned to the home office. Inventory account should be credited in place of
the Shipment from Home office account which was already closes at the end of 2010.
Therefore entry (d) is correct.
32. In the books of Baguio branch (receiving branch) the inter-branch transfer should be treated
as if it was received from the home office. And the freight to be recognized should be the
freight from the office. Therefore choice (c) is correct.
33. In the books of the home office the inter-branch transfer can be cleared by debiting the
receiving branch (Baguio) and crediting the sending branch (Bulacan). Excess freight
account should be charged for the difference which is treated as an expense of the home
office. Therefore choice (a) is correct.
