83 Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.
Merchandising businesses may experience some loss of inventory due to shoplifting, employee theft, or errors in recording or counting inventory. If the balance of the Merchandise Inventory account is larger than the total amount of the merchandise count, the difference is often called inventory shrinkage or inventory shortage. Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.

Under the perpetual inventory system, each purchase and sale of merchandise is recorded in the inventory and cost of goods sold accounts. With these two accounts continuously being updated, the cost of goods sold appears as a single line on the income statement. Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.

97 Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.
The users of the merchandiser’s income statement want to be able to identify key financial numbers used as gross profit, sales expenses, or operating expenses. A multi-step statement provides this information. Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.

98 Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.
Gross profit is computed by subtracting the cost of goods sold from net sales. Net sales ‒ Cost of goods = Gross profit Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.

99 Selling expenses are incurred directly in the selling of merchandise.
Sales salaries Store supplies used Amortization of store equipment Delivery expense Advertising Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.

115 Financial Analysis and Interpretation
Gross margin = Gross Profit Net Sales Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.

116 Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.
EXAMPLE EXERCISE 5-8 Gross Profit and Gross Margin Using the information from Example Exercise 5-7 on page 257, calculate the gross margin percentage. Suppose this company’s competitor has a gross margin of 40%. Is this company’s gross margin better or worse than that of its competitor? Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.

117 Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.
FOLLOW MY EXAMPLE 5-8 Gross Profit and Gross Margin $226,560 / $448,442 = 51% This company has a better gross margin than its competitor. Of each dollar earned, 50 cents is profit before operating expenses are considered. The competitor has higher inventory expense and so it shows profits of only 40 cents on each dollar (before considering operating expenses) For Practice PE 5-8 Copyright © 2014 by Nelson Education Ltd.
