CLASSIFICATION OF GOODS ACCOUNT

Goods is the commodity in which a trader or businessman is dealing. Groceries will be considered as goods for grocery merchant whereas furniture will be considered as goods for furniture merchant. Goods account is a real account as the stock of goods is a current asset. Though the goods is a single account, but for the purpose of recording into the journal the goods is subdivided into five subparts as per the transaction effect. These subparts are purchase account, sales account, purchase return account, sales return account and stock account.

Goods- 1.Purchases

2. Sales

3.Purchase Return

4.Sales Return

5.Stock

Because of such classification of the goods account, whenever the goods is purchased purchases account is debited instead of good account, goods sold then sales account is credited instead of goods account, for goods returned to suppliers purchase return account is credited instead of goods account and for goods returned by customer a sales return account is debited instead of goods account, finally goods lying unsold with the business is termed as Stock
