| Accural Notes: | |||||||||
| There is a problem when the inventory ledger balance is reduced before | |||||||||
| the gown is received. On an accrual basis, the balance in the Purchases account for | |||||||||
| special order merchandise should reflect the inventory outstanding. | |||||||||
| The simplest way to keep up with this would be to have a separate Purchases account | |||||||||
| for Special Order merchandise. The balance in this account should be added to the | |||||||||
| Inventory ledger balance | |||||||||
| This is not a issue for stock orders | |||||||||
