20 November 2025 Dear Sir, we have purchased Gold Coins for reimburse against Sales promotion. My doubt is that whether we can show them in Inventory or booked in Sales Promotion expenses.

Sir, Thank you for immediate reply and though they are not for immediate reimbursement how can we show them in Inventory as Inventory means which the goods we trade and gold coins we are not trading.

can we maintain seperate data for them for disbursement?

20 November 2025 If the gold coins are meant for immediate distribution:
Book as Sales Promotion Expenses under the Profit & Loss Account.

20 November 2025 Think you have cash or bank balance for the same expense. How will you show it? It will be shown in Cash book or the Bank book. Similarly here you have gold instead of cash or bank balance. It will be shown exactly in similar manner. Keep it in inventory till you disburse but under a separate head with clear highlight of the intention. When you disburse, respective expense debit to Gold Inventory Credit.
