Cevap
Carriage Inwards matches with 'Added to purchases to determine net cost of purchases in the Trading Account', Returns Outwards matches with 'Deducted from gross purchases to obtain net purchases', Closing Inventory matches with 'Deducted from cost of goods available for sale to determine cost of goods sold', and Carriage Outwards matches with 'Excluded from the Trading Account and charged as an operating expense in the Profit and Loss Account'.
Each trading account item is classified according to its role in deriving cost of goods sold or operating expenses. Carriage inwards adds to purchase costs, returns outwards reduce gross purchases, closing inventory reduces goods available for sale to derive cost of goods sold, and carriage outwards is treated as an operating expense in the profit and loss account.
