Merchandising Business

● A merchandising business is a type of commercial enterprise


that primarily sells tangible goods to customers for a profit.
Unlike service-oriented businesses that offer intangible
services, merchandising businesses focus on the sale of
products. These goods can vary widely, ranging from
everyday consumer items like clothing, electronics, and
groceries to specialized products such as machinery or
automotive parts.

● In a merchandising business, the primary goal is to


purchase goods from suppliers or manufacturers at a
wholesale price and then resell them to customers at a higher
retail price, thereby generating revenue and profit. The
success of a merchandising business often hinges on factors
such as inventory management, pricing strategies, customer
service, and effective marketing.
Types of Merchandising
Business
1. Retail Merchandising: Retail merchandising
involves selling goods directly to consumers
through physical storefronts, online platforms, or a
combination of both. Retailers typically purchase
goods in bulk from wholesalers or manufacturers,
mark up prices to cover expenses and profit
margins, and then sell them to individual
customers.
Example: A clothing store creates a special display for the
upcoming holiday season,.

Business
2. Wholesale Merchandising: Wholesale
merchandising involves selling goods in large
quantities to other businesses, rather than directly to
consumers. Wholesale merchants often supply
retailers, distributors, or other businesses that require
products for resale. They typically offer lower prices
per unit compared to retail prices, as they sell in bulk.
Example:wholesale distributor of electronics supplies bulk
quantities of products like computer components, cables, and

accessories to retailers .
Account Titles

1. Merchandise Inventory Beginning


It refers to merchandise that remains unsold from
the previous accounting period and is expected to be
sold this period.
If sold within the previous accounting period,
beginning merchandise inventory forms part of cost
of goods sold in the income statement.
Cost of good sold or cost of
sales
- is the amount of merchandise sold by
the business for a given period of time.
It is computed by adding the net cost of
purchases to beginning inventory to get
the cost of goods available from which
the ending inventory is deducted from.
Net cost of purchases
– is the total amount
of merchandise bought
including shipping
costs, but net of
returns and discounts.

Cost of goods available for sale - refers to


total amount of merchandise that the
business can sell to its customers for a
given period of time.
Transaction in a Merchandising
Business
1. Purchase of merchandise/inventory - in order to generate
revenue in a merchandising business, the business must
be able to sell its merchandise.
When the business purchases inventory from suppliers or
manufacturers, it records the transaction by debiting the inventory
account and crediting the accounts payable account (if purchased or
credit) or cash account (if purchased for cash).

In accounting, to purchase means to buy. In


merchandising business there are two systems
of maintaining inventory. These are the periodic
and the perpetual inventory systems.
a. Periodic inventory system

is traditionally used by businesses selling many inexpensive


goods.

is traditionally used by businesses selling many inexpensive goods. The


purchase account is updated, while the merchandise inventory remains
unchanged until the company conducts a physical inventory count and
verification. This verification process typically occurs at the end of the
annual accounting period, commonly on December 31st.
Example of these businesses are supermarkets, convenience stores, hardware
stores, and sari-sari stores. The upgrading of inventory is done periodically
which usually once or twice a year through physical counting
b. Perpetual inventory
system
the updating of inventory is done every time there are changes in the quantity of
the goods. This system is traditionally used by businesses selling few expensive
goods.

the updating of inventory is done every time there are changes in the quantity
of the goods. It means that when a company conducts a purchase, the
Merchandise inventory account is automatic updated. This system is
traditionally used by businesses selling few expensive goods. Examples of
businesses are jewelry stores, car dealers and furniture stores.

Business
2. Sales of Inventory: When the business
sells inventory to customers, it records the
sale by debiting the accounts receivable or
cash account (depending on whether the sale
is made on credit or for cash) and crediting
the sales revenue account. Simultaneously,
the cost of goods (COGS) account is debited.
3. Sale Returns and allowances.
If a customer returns merchandise or receives an allowance for damaged or
defective goods, the business records the transaction by debiting the sales
returns and allowances account and crediting either the accounts receivable or
cash account (depending on the original method of payment).

Even after a sale is made, the customer can still return or replace
the merchandise bought as long as it meets the criteria set forth in
the Business Return and Exchange Policy.

Business allow seven days from date of purchase for returns or


replacement, but most businesses do not accept returns or
replacement if a) tag on merchandise is missing, b) No receipt, c)
damage is due to the fault of customer.
4. SALES DISCOUNT

If the business offers discounts to


customers for prompt payment, it
records the discount given as a debit
to the sales discounts account and a
credit to the accounts receivable or
cash discount.
5. Purchase returns and 6. Partial payment of account with
allowances. supplier.

involves a decrease in both an asset
The transaction on purchase of and a liability
return and allowances can only
happen if there was a purchase of
merchandise to begin with.
7. PURCHASE DISCOUNT. To delineate discount terms,
the manufacturer may specify
descriptions like 2/10; n/30 on
● - if the retailer opts to pay on credit, they
negotiate payment terms with the manufacturer,
the invoice. Here, “2”

purchase cost. Timely payment enables the
manufacturer to allocate funds for other business
endeavors and mitigates the risk of nonpayment.
Two types of purchase discount
● 2. Trade discount – is a price reduction
1. Cash discount - is a
negotiated before the purchase is made,
reduction applied to the final
directly affecting the manufacturer’s
price if a retailer makes advertised price. The magnitude of a
payment within a specified trade discount might increase with
discount period following the larger purchase volumes. While a cash
purchase discount is accounted for in journal
entries, trade discount are not, as they
are settled before the purchase
transaction.
Example: A retailer has an order of Php 4000
worth of inventory September 1. The
manufacturer offers a 15% trade discount if
the order is placed by September 5. Assuming
that the retailer places the Php4,000 order on
September 3, the purchase price would be
adjusted to Php3,400 after applying the 15%
trade discount (Php 4,000 – 600). Since the
trade discount is determined based on the
order placement date and not contingent on
payment deadlines, the initial journal entry to
record the purchase would affect the
discounted amount of Php3,400. Despite
receiving a trade discount, the retailer may still
qualify for an additional cash discount if they
pay within the discount window specified on
the invoice.
8 Full payment of account with
supplier.
The business should make sure that
is has a good credit standing in
order to maintain good relationship
with the suppliers. The business
should pay off all its obligations as
they become due. This payment
happens on or before the last day of
the credit period.

Credit period refers to the


-
number of days from date of
purchase that the supplier has
given the business to pay its
accounts.
In certain cases, suppliers give an
incentive to business to pay their
accounts in full earlier than usual. The
incentive is known as cash discount
and it can only be availed by the
business if it pays its account in full
with the supplier within the discount
period. Discount period refers to the
number of days from date of purchase
that the supplier’s offer of a
percentage reduction in liability
remains valid.
9. Partial collection of customer account.

This affect only one side of account equation which is the left
side.

10. Full collection of customer account


There are different analyses based on whether
the account was collected in full within or
beyond the discount period.
Freight Costs: When the business incurs freight costs related to the purchase or sale of
inventory, it records these expenses by debiting the inventory account (for purchases) or the
freight out (or delivery expenses) account (for sales) and crediting the cash or accounts
payable account.
The complexity and variety of transactions may vary depending on the size, nature and
operations of the business. Proper recording and analysis of these transactions are crucial for
maintaining accurate financial records and making informed business decisions.
Merchandising enterprises are involved in the sale of products. In this type of business,
finished and packaged manufactured goods are acquired, marked up, and subsequently sold
to customers. Depending on the nature of the transaction, a merchandiser can function as
either the purchaser or the seller, determined by whether the product is being acquired (and
added to inventory) or sold (and deducted from inventory).
A vendor refers to a company or individual from whom a merchandiser
procures goods, while a customer denotes a company or individual to
whom a merchandiser sells goods.
Inventory encompasses items acquired for resale, distinct from supplies,
which are materials obtained for internal business operations rather than
for customer resale. For instance, if a merchandiser has Windex glass
cleaner in stock, it is considered inventory if intended for resale, but
classified as a supply if utilized for maintaining business premises.
Likewise, inventory differs from fixed assets such as equipment. For
example, desktops computers held by a merchandiser are deemed
inventory if intended for resale but categorized as equipment if utilized for
internal business functions.
9. Payment of freight.
In merchandising transaction there are two parties, the buyer and seller. This means that for the
purchase and sale transactions, the following scenarios may have been taken place:

a. the buyer goes to the seller’s place of business to purchase merchandise

b. the buyer contacts the seller to order merchandise and the buyers pick up the merchandise from
the seller’s place

c. the buyer contacts the seller to order merchandise and the seller delivers goods to the buyers place

d. the seller goes to the buyer’s place to receive order or merchandise and delivers goods to the
buyers place of business.

However, there are certain instances wherein it is inconvenient for buyer and seller to get the
merchandise that’s why they hire the services of the third party to deliver the merchandise which
known as freight forwarder or freight company. Examples are LBC, FEDFEX, UPS AND 2GO.
FREIGHT – is the cost associated with transporting
goods from seller’s to buyer’s place of business. It
is commonly known as shipping cost.

Freight on merchandise purchase means that the amount of


freight is recorded by the buyer and because merchandise
is coming in to the buyer’s place of business, the Freight-in
account is used in the buyer’s book.

Freight on merchandise sold means that the amount of


freight is recorded in the seller’s book as Freight-out
because the merchandise is going out of the seller’s place
of business. Similar to Freight-in, freight-out reduces net
income which decreases owner’s equity. It is not part of the
cost of purchased merchandise or cost of goods sold. It is
part of seller’s operating expenses, specifically distribution
costs.
FREIGHT-IN - encompasses shipping expenses that the buyer is obligated to
cover upon receiving a shipment from the seller, including delivery and insurance
costs. When the buyers assumes shipping expenses, they incorporate these
costs into the purchase price, keeping the charges with inventory until its sales.
This adherence to the cost principle ensures that shipping expenses remain
associated with the merchandise as part of preparing it for sale from the buyer’s
perspective. Such expenses are thus retained within inventory until the
merchandise is sold, at which point the shipping charges, along with other
inventory costs are transferred to the Cost of Goods sold on the income
statement.
● For instance, A California Business Solutions
(CBS) acting as a buyer, procures 30
JOURNAL ENTRY
computers from a manufacturer for $80
each, with CBS also bearing the shipping Inventory 3,400
costs totaling $1,000. In this case, CBS
Accounts payable 3,400
would record the following entry to
acknowledge the purchase of goods and the To recognize purchase of goods and
associated freight-in expenses. Freight-in (30 x $80) + 1,000
FREIGHT-OUT – refers to the costs for which the seller is responsible
when shipping to a buyer, such as delivery and insurance expenses.
When the seller is responsible for shipping costs, they recognize this as
a delivery expenses. The delivery expense is specifically associated
with selling and not daily operations, thus, delivery expenses are
typically recorded as a selling and administrative expenses on the
income statement in the current period.
.
For example: CBS may sell
JOURNAL ENTRY
electronics packages to a customer
and agree to cover the $100 cost Delivery expense 100
associated with shipping and Cash 100
insurance. CBS would record the
To recognize freight-out shipping
following entry to recognie freight-out
costs
10. Purchase of supplies

Aside from merchandise, a


merchandising business can also
purchase other items such as
supplies. Both supplies and
merchandise are assets of
business. The main difference is
that merchandise is bought with
the intention of reselling it, while
supplies are bought with the
intention of using them in
business operations.
11. Purchase of property, plant & equipment.

Merchandising businesses may also


purchase property plant and equipment
which is a tangible assets with estimated
useful life of more than one year which are
used in business operations.

12. Incurrence of expenses.

A merchandising business also incurs


operating expenses, regardless whether the
operating expenses is a distribution cost or an
administrative expenses, the effect on
accounting equation is the same.
13. Payment of expenses – this
decrease cash and increase
expense. Therefore the effect on
the accounting equation is a
decrease in asset and decrease in
owner’s equity.
14. Owner’s investment of
merchandise. The owner may invest
any asset, whether cash or non-cash
into the business. This transaction
increase assets of the business and
owner’s equity. The investment
made is and initial or an additional
investment.
15. Owner’s withdrawal of merchandise.

This transaction affect the


account purchases in the
income statement. A
decrease in purchases means
decrease in cost of goods
sold which increases gross
profit, in turn increases
net income and owner’s
equity.
