    a business owner has two shops A and B. He buys some items (for eg non inventory like stationaries in bulk) for 2000 and transfers items worth 750 to be used in shop B. What are the entries in shop A. Now shop B owes Shop A the amount of 750.

    in shop A records

    Dr stationaries expense 2000

    Cr cash 2000

    and regarding the transfer of items

    Dr Receivables from B 750

    Cr ????????

    Cr NCA (stationary) 750
    Dr receivable 750

    The double entry would relate to the SOFP. If there was profit or loss made on the sale, it would go to the I/S as well. If (A) sold all the stationary for £750, £250 would go to C.O.S as an expense. This would be reversed on consolidation (you will learn consolidation in F7).

    Hope this helps.

    Actually, if the items were expensed, then the entry would be

    Dr: Receivable from B 750
    Cr: Sales to B 750

    your entry would have only worked if the items were debited to non-current asset when purchased.

    Sorry, Alkemist, I thought:

    Dr Receivable Cr Stationery
    750, 1000

    Loss on disposal would go to the I/S
    250

    Is this wrong?
