Quick Revision Notes
Important Concept
1. Valuation of Stock: Stock should be valued at cost or net realizable value whichever is
lower. In case of consignment, cost means:
Cost of Goods to Consignor
+ Exp. incurred till the goods reach the premises of the consignee
2. Goods invoiced above cost: If goods are booked at higher than cost, the effect of
loading must be removed by additional entries.
Additional Entries:
1. Goods sent on Consignment A/c Dr.
To Consignment to ____ A/c
(reversing loading in goods sent on consignment)
2. Consignment to _____ A/c Dr.
To Stock Reserve A/c
(reversing loading in value of closing stock)
3. Abnormal Loss: 1. Find out the cost of the goods lost
2. Pass the entry: P. & L. A/c
Dr.
To Consignment to ______ A/c
4. Normal Loss: Spread over the entire consignment
Cost per unit = Total Cost + Expenses incurred / Qty available after normal loss
5. Return of Goods from the consignee: Goods valued at the price at which it was
consigned to consignee
Exp. incurred by the consignee to send those goods back to consignor are not taken into
consideration.
