Gross profit


This query is : Resolved 

26 June 2013 hello experts,

Can a small dealer's Gross profit exceeds its sales because of closing stock.

26 June 2013 No question of profit exceeding sales. If it exceeds, u have valued ur closing stock at very high and incorrect rates.

26 June 2013 ya i know that...but dealer is paying very high rent and he wants to show profit so he valued his stock at high rate

26 June 2013 can we take Lease rent of the shop as a direct exp. for the dealer

26 June 2013 If it is a direct expense related to stock, u can take it. Even then, ur gross profit cannot exceed ur sales.

26 June 2013 ya if i take lease rent as a direct exp. for dealer then G.P. is lower then sale it will be 43%. but i have a doubt that can lease rent be considered as direct exp. or not

26 June 2013 It needs to be decided on a case to case basis. If it can be rendered as direct expense, then load them in closing stock else not.

26 June 2013 what you mean by load them in closing stock?

26 June 2013 If it is a direct expense related to stock, then the closing stock value shall also include proportionate value of direct expenses also.

26 June 2013 ok...thanks a lot
