When you buy goods, inventory increases, so you debit inventory, and you immediately
record the decrease in inventory when you sell it. This practice is much like tracking
(counting) the amount of inventory left on the account at any time, hence the term
"continuous inventory system".
4 . What are the offset accounts for sales and why do they appear?
Return of goods sold, discount of sale and discount of sale. When the buyer discovers
that the incoming item does not match the order, it will notify the seller to return the
item, which in the case is called return of sale for the seller. In another case, where the
buyer found a defect in the goods upon acceptance, there were generally two
treatments: (1) if the defective goods could not continue to be used, the buyer
returned the goods (i.e., the goods were returned), in the case of the seller, the goods
were returned for sale. ( 2 ) If the defective item is available for continued use and the
seller is willing to give a price discount , the buyer's company will accept the goods ,
which in the case of the seller is called a sales allowance . Furthermore, in order to
encourage the buyer to pay the bill earlier, the seller agrees that if the buyer pays
during the discount period, the seller will give the buyer a "cash discount", which the
seller calls a sales discount.
