Indicate how accounting for lost and stolen merchandise differs between firms using a perpetual inventory system and those using a periodic inventory system. Which system provides the best way to account for such losses and why?

Correct Answer

verifed

verified

In both systems, such losses are not known immediately. In the perpetual system, losses are often discovered only when comparing a physical inventory count with the current balance of the inventory account. An adjusting entry is then made reducing the inventory balance and recording an increase in the cost of goods sold (expense) account. Under a periodic system, losses are not really "discovered" but rather are included in the computation of cost of goods sold after the physical inventory is taken. Periodic systems assume that all inventory not on hand at the end of the year have been sold and do not separate the cost of lost, damaged or stolen merchandise from the cost of goods sold.

Costs of selling inventory are product costs.

A) True
B) False
