Here we go!
>Sales [INCOME > OWNER'S INTEREST +] (E +)
>Bank (A)
[BANK and SALES are written together on 1 line, and trade inventory and cost of sales
are written together on 1 line]
>Trade Stock (A) [Our trade inventory is REDUCING now because we sold]
>Cost of sales [EXPENSE > OWNER'S INTEREST -] (E -)

REMEMBER!
When we work with numbers in the equation > YOUR COST OF SALES IS WORKED OUT OF
THE PROFIT MARGIN and then your TRADE STOCK's amount (its "value" by which the
owner's equity is reduced) becomes the C.O.S's amount.
For example: If our sales were R 3 600 and we work on a 20% profit margin.
ACCOUNT Dr. ACCOUNT Cr. ASSETS OWNER'S INTEREST LIABILITIES
Bank Sales + R3500 + R3500 0
Cost of sales Trading
