Consignment Accounts
To consign means TO SEND. Consignment is an AGREEMENT between two parties i.e., Consignor and Consignee, whereby Consignor agrees to send goods to consignee on regular basis for the purpose of sale in exchange of commission and reimbursement of expenses to be paid by consignor to consignee. The party who sends the goods is called CONSIGNOR (Principal). The party to whom the goods are sent is called CONSIGNEE (Agent).
The ownership of the goods i.e., Property in goods remain with consignor. Agent does not become the owner. It means the POSSESSION of the goods is transferred but not OWNERSHIP. On sale, the buyer will become the owner.
Principal does not send invoice to agent he only sends PROFORMA INVOICE which looks like invoice. The object of proforma invoice is to convey information to agent regarding particulars of goods sent. Goods are sold by consignee on behalf of consignor AT THE RISK OF CONSIGNOR. Consignee gets commission for the goods sold and he is not responsible for any Bad Debts that may arise.
If the agent has to be made responsible for any BAD DEBTS that may arise, he is to be paid additional commission called DEL-CREDERE COMMISSION. Such commission is calculated on total sales, not only on credit sales until and unless agreed. Agent sends periodical statement to principal called ACCOUNT SALES. It includes information about sales made by agent, expenses incurred on behalf of principal, commission charged by agent and balance due to principal.

Working Notes:
(1) Calculation of Consignment Stock Sale Price = 100 + 25 = 125
Cost of Sales = Sales × 100/125
= 2,25,000 × 100/125
= Rs.1,80,000
Cost of the goods available for sale = Rs. 20,000 + Rs. 2,00,000 = Rs.2,20,000. Hence stock at the end = Rs. 2,20,000 - Rs. 1,80,000 = Rs. 40,000
(2) Since Deepak is paid del-credere commission, bad debts of Rs. 3,000 would be borne by him.
