How to create outlook signature
[Music] welcome to online advantage i'm professor gonzalez today we're going to go over periodic inventory and the period end adjusting entries for it so recall that with periodic inventory we do not adjust the inventory account during the period so it gets adjusted at the end so we're going to look at uh general ledger using t accounts here and we have an inventory account with our two thousand dollar balance that would be the beginning balance because it hasn't been adjusted and during the year when we're purchasing inventory we are putting it to a purchases account our freight goes to a freight account because it's part of the this is freight in the part of the purchases the inventory coming in part of the cost and then we have purchase discounts and purchase returns we use accounts specifically for those as well so when we sell inventory we do not hit the inventory account like we would with the perpetual method instead we just hit sales and cash or accounts receivable and we do not reduce our inventory account so it has to be done at the end of the period we reduce inventory and we record cost of goods sold we're going to look at the formula for inventory so the formula is beginning inventory we add net purchases and that equals our goods available for sale and then from there we subtract ending inventory which would have been figured out by going out and looking at the inventory and calculating the cost of the ending inventory that's still available at the end of the period and that will give us cost of goods sold from our general ledger we have our beginning inventory of two thousand our net purchases is going to be the one thousand purchases plus the fifty dollars of freight in less than 24 to the discounts and that's the 200 for returns and that equals 830 adding those two together gives us net purchases of eight hundred and thirty dollars then again we we would get the ending inventory from the count and we're gonna say our ending inventory is nineteen hundred subtracting that gives us cost of goods sold of 930 now we're going to do the journal entry to close it out now the purchases the freight in the purchase discounts and the purchase returns are temporary accounts they're going to close out to zero the inventory account is going to be adjusted so that we end up with the nineteen hundred dollars in that account at the end our cost of goods sold will be updated for nine hundred thirty so doing that journal entry the first thing we're going to do is we're going to remove the beginning inventory and so we're going to do that by crediting that account so i'm going to credit beginning inventory or just inventory i'm going to put just a parenthesis beginning so you remember that's the beginning inventory that i am removing for the two thousand dollars then i'm going to update inventory after that for the 1900. so just looking over here what happened by reducing it i've now zeroed that account out now i'm going to add 1900 back to lift it back up to 1900. so now zero i'm adding 1900 which is the ending inventory i really want it to be so i'm going to debit inventory for that amount and in parentheses i'm going to put ending so you know why i'm doing that even though it truly is the same account now i'm going to zero out all of these accounts so starting with the freight i'm going to credit it to zero it out the purchases it's also being credited the purchase discounts will be debited and so will the purchase returns those are contra accounts so purchase discount for 20 and purchase return i'm going to abbreviate it for 200. now i'm going to record the cost of goods sold the cost of goods sold i know is 9 30 from the calculation but you can also plug it so debits have to equal credits we all know that right so if i total up this side i will find that this side is off by 930 dollars because i have to record my cost of goods sold so i'm going to squeeze it in here because it is a debit to get my debits first of 930 now if i add this side add this side i'm in balance debits equal credits that is the period and adjusting entry using the periodic method thank you very much i hope you found this video helpful [Music] you
