In the books of the purchaser the transaction can be
accounted in different ways as per the policy of the
purchasing company/firm. Various options are:-
1. Treat the Laptop as asset & Calculator as Stationery &
recognise the value of the free item in the books - Debit
Asset (Laptop) with Rs. 50000/-, Stationery A/c with Rs.
1000/-, Credit the supplier with Rs. 50000/- & Discount A/c
with Rs. 1000/-
2. Treat the Laptop as asset & Calculator as Stationery -
Debit Asset (Laptop) with Rs. 49000/-, Stationery A/c with
Rs. 1000/-, Credit the supplier with Rs. 50000/-.
3. Treat the Laptop & Calculator as Assets - Debit Asset
(Laptop) with Rs. 50000/-, Asset (Calculator) with Rs.
1000/-, Credit the supplier with Rs. 50000/- & Discount A/c
with Rs. 1000/-. In this case calculator can be depreciated
100%.
4. Treat the Laptop & Calculator as Assets - Debit Asset
(Laptop) with Rs. 49000/-, Asset (Calculator) with Rs.
1000/-, Credit the supplier with Rs. 50000/-. In this case
calculator can be depreciated 100%.
5. Treat the Laptop as an Asset & ignore calculator in the
books - Debit Asset (Laptop) with Rs. 50000/- & Credit the
supplier with Rs. 50000/-.
6. When payment is made debit the supplier and credit Bank
or Cash A/c as the case may be.
Any of the above accounting treatment can be in line with

He got 2 Goods Calculator Worth rs 1000 and Laptop Worth Rs
50000.If we want to Include Calculator in the Books of
Company ,We can Consider the Cost of Calculator (1000/-) as
a Discount Recieved for the Laptop.So we can Value the Cost
