HOME OFFICE AND BRANCH ACCOUNTING

Accounting for Overvaluation and Inventoriable Freight Cost

Problem 1
Income statement submitted by the ABC branch to the home office for the month of December
2021 is shown below. After deducting the necessary adjustments, the true net income of the
branch was ascertained to be P156,000.
Sales P600,000
Cost of sales
Inventory, December 1 P80,000
Shipments from HO 350,000
Local purchases 30,000
Inventory, December 31 100,000 360,000
Operating expenses 180,000

The branch inventories were:


12/01/2021 12/31/2021
Merchandise from HO P70,000 P84,000
Local purchases 10,000 16,000

Determine the billing price based on cost and the balance of allowance for overvaluation of
branch on December 31, 2021.

Problem 2
On March 1, 2024, ABC’s home office established the Caloocan and Manila branches. The
home office transferred P5,600,000 cash and merchandise costing P12,000,000 to its Caloocan
branch. The home office bills merchandise shipments to branches at 110% of cost. On March
15, the home office instructed the Caloocan to transfer sixty percent of the merchandise and
cash received to the Manila branch. In addition, on June 6, 2024, the Caloocan branch received
shipments from the home office billed at P8,800,000. The freight amounting to P455,000 was
paid by the branch. Seventy percent of the shipments were sold by the Caloocan branch to its
own customers. On August 27, 2024, upon instruction from the home office, the Caloocan
branch transferred forty percent of the remaining immediate prior month shipments from the
home office to the Manila branch. The receiving branch paid additional freight of P105,000. Had
the merchandise been shipped from ABC directly to the Manila branch, only P133,000 freight
would have been incurred.

Determine the following:


1. Excess freight cost
2. Balance of the investment in Manila branch in HO book.
3. Balance of the investment in Caloocan branch in HO book.
