    Can you please tell me entry for “Inventory of stationary ignored at end of period costing 240”.
    The book is making journal entry as,
    Dr Inventory of Stationary
    Cr Stationary Expense
    Can you please tell me, why we are crediting expense and debiting inventory of stationary.

    The stationery in the store room is an asset so is introduced by a Dr entry.

    Stationery will have been expensed as bought eg

    Dr Stationery expense
    Cr cash

    If there is some stationery left over it is not an expense of the period so the expense account has to be reduced by a credit entry.
