There are two different A/cs viz Real A/c and Personal A/c

During the sales, irrespective of nature, Goods are moving out of the firm, which finally will reach the individual Gopal. The goods, which are sold out to Gopal led to movement of goods out of the firm. Any movement of asset should be referred only to the tune of Real A/c. The goods which are going out of the firm could be recorded as transaction under the Real A/c i.e."Credit what goes out". While recording the transaction, it should not be entered as Goods A/c, Why ? Instead of recording as Goods A/c, which are going out of the firm should be mentioned only with reason of going out. The reason for goods going out of the firm is only due to sales; has to registered in the books of accounts at the time of entering the journal entries.
The second account which gets affected is the personal A/c of representations. The goods sold out on credit led to register the receiver of goods who has not paid at the moment of sale. Gopal is the individual received the goods on credit during the sales expected to make the payment as per the terms of credit period. Till the maturity of the credit period agreed, the firm should wait and collect the amount from the individual who is nothing but the receiver of goods.
