Sir i just wanted to confirm two things
1) when we are given with the order quantity and we are to change order quantity ….the decrease in overdraft is calculated using average inventory?(reference question dusty co sept 2019)
2) when we are given with inventory in sofp or inventory holding period and cost of sales…and there is a change in inventory holding period …the increase/decrease in overdraft is calculated using the formula
Inventory decrease/increase* overdraft interest
Where inventory inc/dec will be
Revised inventory balance – old balance
And no average will be done right??September 30, 2023 at 2:29 am #692646Sir i just wanted to confirm two things

And no average will be done right??October 1, 2023 at 7:20 am #692678When we are given the order quantity and we need to change the order quantity, the decrease in overdraft can be calculated using the average inventory. This is based on the principle that as the average inventory decreases, there will be a saving of interest on the overdraft.
When we are given the inventory in the statement of financial position (SOFP) or the inventory holding period and cost of sales, and there is a change in the inventory holding period, the increase or decrease in overdraft can be calculated using the formula: Inventory decrease/increase * overdraft interest. This formula allows us to determine the impact of changes in inventory on the overdraft and the corresponding interest payable.
October 1, 2023 at 7:53 am #692680So sir we can say that the inc/dec in inventory=inc/dec in overdraft
And same goes for receivables
Right?October 1, 2023 at 11:05 am #692687I have answered this question above.
