Yes, you can show your closing stock on 30.04.13 as ₹13,000 in Tally by adding the direct expense of ₹1,000 to the stock value.
---
### How to do this in Tally:
**1. Adjust Stock Value:**
* Since direct expenses (like freight, handling, or direct costs) can be added to the cost of stock, you need to **increase the stock value by ₹1,000**.
---
### Journal Entry to increase stock value:
``` Direct Expenses (Expense Ledger) Dr. ₹1,000 To Stock-in-Hand (Stock Ledger) ₹1,000 ```
* This entry adds the ₹1,000 expense to your stock value.
---
### Explanation:
* Your original stock was ₹12,000 (cost of goods). * Direct expense ₹1,000 related to stock increases its value. * After this entry, stock value becomes ₹13,000 in Tally.
---
### Important:
* Make sure the direct expense is truly related to stock (like freight, packing, etc.). * Avoid booking indirect or period expenses against stock.
