Under periodical inventory accounting method, is that possible to report quarterly gross profit and operating profit numbers to shareholders, if inventory counting is done at the end of the fiscal year? Why?
In periodical inventory system, we determine the amount of inventory at the end of accounting period or in specified periods.
In the case given, it is given that inventory counting is done
the end of fiscal year.
As we know Inventory at end is important part to calculate the
gross profit accurately and without inventory at end value, we
cannot calculate the gross profit accurately. For Quarterly Gross
profit we need inventory at the end of the quarter which is not
possible to find out in given case. Therefore under periodical
inventory counting method, where inventory counting is done at the
end of fiscal year, it is not possible to report quarterly gross
profit to shareholders. Also operating profit is derived from gross
profit itself, so it is also not possible to report quarterly
operating profit to the shareholders
