  2. Learning Objective 1 Distinguish between the activities and financial statements of service and merchandising businesses.

  3. Nature of Merchandising Businesses Most service businesses, such as plumbing repair and accounting services, have no merchandise. Merchandising businesses, such as a department store or sandwich shop, generate revenue by selling a product. Merchandise on hand (not sold) at the end of an accounting period is called merchandise inventory. LO 1

  4. Learning Objective 2 Distinguish between the activities and financial statements of service and merchandising businesses. Describe and illustrate the financial statements of a merchandising business.

  5. Multiple-Step Income Statement The multiple-step income statement contains several sections, subsections, and subtotals. The first segment reports revenue from sales. LO 2

  6. Sales is the total amount charged customers for merchandise sold, including cash sales and sales on account. LO 2 Multiple-Step Income Statement • Sales returns and allowances are granted by the seller to customers for damaged or defective merchandise. • Sales discounts are granted by the seller to customers for early payment of amounts owed. • Net sales is determined by subtracting sales returns and allowances and sales discounts from sales.

  7. The second segment of the multiple-step income statement is the cost of merchandise sold section. The cost of merchandise sold is the cost of the merchandise sold to customers. Merchandise costs consist of all the costs of acquiring the merchandise and readying it for sale, such as purchase and freight costs. LO 2 Multiple-Step Income Statement

  8. The buyer may return merchandise to the seller (purchase return), or the buyer may receive a reduction in the initial price at which the merchandise was purchased (purchase allowance). LO 2 Multiple-Step Income Statement • Sellers may offer customers sales discounts for early payment of their bills. From the buyer’s perspective, such discounts are referred to as purchase discounts.

  9. If merchandise inventory at the end of the period is determined by taking a physical count of inventory on hand, a periodicinventory system is being used. LO 2 Multiple-Step Income Statement • Under the perpetual inventory system, the amounts of inventory purchased, available for sale, and sold are continuously (perpetually) updated in the inventory records.

  10. LO 2 Gross Profit • Gross profit is computed by subtracting the cost of merchandise sold from net sales. GrossProfit

  11. Selling expenses are incurred directly in the selling of merchandise. LO 2 Multiple-Step Income Statement • Administrative expenses, sometimes called general expenses, are incurred in the administration or general operations of the business. • Income from operations, sometimes called operating income, is determined by subtracting operating expenses from gross profit.

  12. Other income is revenue from sources other than the primary operating activity of a business. Other expense is an expense that cannot be traced directly to the normal operations of the business. Subtracting other income and expenses from “income from operations” provides the net income or loss. LO 2 Multiple-Step Income Statement

  13. Balance Sheet The form of balance sheet with the assets on the left-hand side and the liabilities and owner’s equity on the right-hand side is called the account form. LO 2 • When the balance sheet is presented in a downward sequence in three sections, it has been prepared using the report form.

  15. Cash Sales LO 3 On January 3, NetSolutions sold $1,800 of merchandise for cash.

  16. Cash Sales LO 3 Using the perpetual inventory system, the cost of merchandise sold and the decrease in merchandise inventory are also recorded. The cost of merchandise sold on January 3 is $1,200.

  17. Cash Sales LO 3 Sales made to customers using credit cards are recorded as cash sales. Assume that NetSolutions paid credit card processing fees of $48 on January 31.

  19. Sales Discounts LO 3 • The terms for when payments for merchandise are to be made are called credit terms. • If payment is required on delivery, the terms are cash or net cash. Otherwise, the buyer is allowed an amount of time, known as the credit period, in which to pay.

  20. Credit Terms To encourage the buyer to pay before the end of the credit period, the seller may offer a discount, such as 2/10, n/30. These terms indicate that a two percent discount can be taken if the invoice is paid within ten days. After ten days the full amount is due by the thirtieth day from the invoice date. LO 3

  21. Receipts on Account LO 3 On January 17, NetSolutions receives the amount due within ten days, so the buyer deducted $30 ($1,500 x 2%) from the invoice amount.

  28. Purchase Transactions LO 3 Alpha Technologies issued an invoice for $3,000 to NetSolutions dated March 12, with terms 2/10, n/30. Based on the calculation in the previous slide, NetSolutions pays the amount due, less the discount, on March 22.

  30. Purchases Returns and Allowances A purchases return involves actually returning merchandise that is damaged or does not meet the specifications of the order. From a buyer’s perspective, suchreturns are called purchasesreturns and allowances. LO 3 • A debit memorandum, often called a debit memo,informs the seller of the amount the buyer proposes to debit to the account payable due the seller.
