    we are trying to find how much we paid suppliers. you have the cost of sales figure of 840 you know openin inventory of 140K and closing 160K. and you find total purchases and from here how much you have paid to suppliers.
    cos. is opening inventory+purchases less closing inventory.
    840=140+X-160
    hope this helps.

    The irrecoverable debt was dealt with in receivables because the cash received from receivables was lowers (cos nothing received from the irrecoverable).

    It was removed from the expenses because it was not a cash expense.
