Certainly! Here are the entries you should pass in Tally for both scenarios:
### Scenario 1: Stock Received, Bill Not Received Yet
When you receive stock but haven't received the purchase bill from the supplier:
1. **Debit (Stock-in-Hand Account)**: Increase in your stock due to receipt of goods. - **Account**: Stock-in-Hand (or specific inventory account) - **Amount**: Total value of goods received
2. **Credit (Supplier Account)**: Liability to the supplier for goods received but invoice pending. - **Account**: Supplier's Account (Accounts Payable) - **Amount**: Total value of goods received
#### Example: Suppose you received goods worth Rs. 50,000 from a supplier without an invoice: - Debit: Stock-in-Hand (or specific inventory account) - Rs. 50,000 - Credit: Supplier's Account (Accounts Payable) - Rs. 50,000
### Scenario 2: Bill Received in Advance, Stock Received Later
When you receive goods after receiving the purchase bill in advance:
1. **Debit (Supplier Account)**: Reduce the liability to the supplier since the goods are received. - **Account**: Supplier's Account (Accounts Payable) - **Amount**: Total amount for which the bill was received in advance
2. **Credit (Stock-in-Hand Account)**: Increase in your stock due to receipt of goods. - **Account**: Stock-in-Hand (or specific inventory account) - **Amount**: Total value of goods received
#### Example: Suppose you received a bill for Rs. 50,000 in advance from a supplier: - Debit: Supplier's Account (Accounts Payable) - Rs. 50,000 - Credit: Stock-in-Hand (or specific inventory account) - Rs. 50,000
These entries will correctly reflect the transactions in Tally, ensuring your inventory and accounts payable are accurately recorded based on the timing of stock receipt and invoice issuance. Adjustments can be made when the actual invoice is received or goods are delivered, ensuring your financial records remain precise.
