I think last time I gave you that treatment. It's taken to costing profit and loss account.

Expired Inventory: Write off as an expense, debiting the expense account and crediting the inventory account.

Damaged Inventory: Record at net realizable value, reduce cost, and separate recovery/salvage value. Debit loss account, credit inventory account.
