Explanation
Purchases will be credited if goods are given as charity. When accounting for goods given as charity, purchases are reduced with the exact cost of goods contributed. The amount is reduced from purchases in the trading account. It is shown as an expense on the debit side of the income statement.
Accounts Receivable (AR) is the proceeds or payment which the company will receive from its customers who have purchased its goods & services on credit. Usually the credit period is short ranging from few days to months or in some cases maybe a year.
