Ch. 6: Inventory and Costs of Goods sold
Inventory: Items company intends for sale two customers in the ordinary course of
business.
Inventory is a current asset, cost of goods sold is an expense
Ending inventory is often the largest asset in the balance sheet and cost of goods sold is the
largest expense in the income statement
Manufacturing companies: produce the inventory of spaced-out rather than buying them
in finished form from suppliers
Raw materials: inventory includes the cost of components that will become part of
the finished product but we haven't used in production
Work-in-process:The products that have been started in the production process but
are not yet complete at the end of the period.
Finished goods:Items for which the manufacturing process is complete
Merchandising companies: Purchase finished products from manufacturers and they sell the
product to the customers
Wholesalers:resale inventory to retail companies or two professional users
Retailers: purchase inventory from manufacturers or wholesalers and then sell this
inventory to end users
Service companies record revenues when providing services to customers. Merchandising and
manufacturing companies record revenues when selling inventory to customers.
Ending inventory is inventory not sold. Inventory sold is the cost of the goods sold expense
Multiple-step income statement: the income statement reports multiple levels of income or profit.
Separating revenues and expenses in two different types provides a better way of determining the
source of profitability
Gross profit: net revenues or net sales minus cost of goods sold
Net sales: net amount of revenues
Operating income: gross profit reduced by operating expenses.
Measures profitability of normal operations.
Operating expenses: selling, general and administrative expenses, depreciation, salaries,
rent, utilities, etc.
Nonoperating revenues and expenses: other income = positive, other expense = negative.
