Answer / Rajesh Kumar Rajak

To correct the error, you should adjust the opening inventory for 2015-16 by deducting the undocumented purchases made in February and March 2015 from the closing stock of 2014-15 (Rs. 30 lakhs). This adjustment should be recorded as a debit to Purchases for the year 2015-16 and a credit to Stock Inventory. Also, make necessary entries in the Sales and Purchase registers to account for the missing split of stock and adjust the closing inventory accordingly.
