Answer Posted / praveen gnaneshwar
It is primarily to evaluate the correct profit ONLY from sales, without considering other Administrative or Indirect cost.
Take an Example:
You had an opening balance of stock worth Rs 100. You purchased some more for Rs.50. You sold stock worth 100 for 200 rupees. Thus you made a profit of 100 rupees while you still have stock worth 50 rupees with you.
Debit/Purchases: (Open Bal. 100 + Purchases 50 )- Credit/Sales (Sales 200 + Clsng. Stock 50) = 100 Profit
If you dont take closing stock into account, then your profits would fall to only 50 rupees which is not correct.
