30 July 2012 if bag received for cell phone purchase then it should be deducted from cell phone cost by crediting cellphone and debiting bag a/c
and if it was a goods then debit stock and credit cellphone

30 July 2012 Materiality is the KEY. Are you going to claim depreciation on cell phone? In normal cases, it is a gift. not taxable in the hands of donee. If you are showing it as goos... then the better treatment would be gift received rather than misc income. This will be added below gross profit line.
