• By subtracting the cost of goods sold from sales we arrive at the gross profit/margin
![Page 42: Accounting – Revision For Mid Term Exam Dr. Clive Vlieland-Boddy Academic Year 2009-2010](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081414/5513e39155034674748b5581/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Trading Statement
• Sales 160,000• Less Cost of Sales• Opening Inventories 21,000• Add Purchases 92,000• Less Closing Inventories -18,000 • Cost of goods Sold 90,000 • Gross Profit/Margin 80,000

• Sales – Cost of Sales = GP % (Margin)• Very important ratio

Overheads, EBIT & Beyond
![Page 45: Accounting – Revision For Mid Term Exam Dr. Clive Vlieland-Boddy Academic Year 2009-2010](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081414/5513e39155034674748b5581/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Overheads
• Expenses consumed in the period• We may need to adjust what is incurred to
what is actually consumed!
![Page 46: Accounting – Revision For Mid Term Exam Dr. Clive Vlieland-Boddy Academic Year 2009-2010](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081414/5513e39155034674748b5581/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Overheads
• Normally grouped under a few principal headings.
• Examples: Sales and Marketing, General Admin and Depreciation
![Page 47: Accounting – Revision For Mid Term Exam Dr. Clive Vlieland-Boddy Academic Year 2009-2010](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081414/5513e39155034674748b5581/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Incurred Vs Consumed
• We may well incur expenses but we need to evaluate these.
• We should only show what has actually been consumed.
• Example: We may have received invoice for telephone or insurance but for what period do those represent?
• They can easily be for the previous or next accounting period.
• We need to adjust these
![Page 48: Accounting – Revision For Mid Term Exam Dr. Clive Vlieland-Boddy Academic Year 2009-2010](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081414/5513e39155034674748b5581/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

Revenue Vs Capital Expenditure
![Page 51: Accounting – Revision For Mid Term Exam Dr. Clive Vlieland-Boddy Academic Year 2009-2010](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081414/5513e39155034674748b5581/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Capital Expenditure
• Companies buy items to sell on to customers but might also acquire for its own use.
• Take a computer retailer. It will buy computers to sell to customers but may also keep some for its own use.
• Again we return to what has been consumed?
![Page 52: Accounting – Revision For Mid Term Exam Dr. Clive Vlieland-Boddy Academic Year 2009-2010](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081414/5513e39155034674748b5581/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Capital Expenditure
• Represents a NON CURRENT asset.• It is an expense but expected to last more
than 12 months.Example:
Microsoft develops a new version of windows over 12 months at a cost of $100m. It then expects to sell the new version over the following 2 years generating revenues of $150m per year.
