Chapter summary
The chapter has explored into the workings of accounting for branch transactions in
relation to the head office, distinguishing between autonomous and non-autonomous
branches. It has elucidated how non-autonomous branches operate under the full
control of the head office, necessitating the preparation of transaction records solely
by the head office. Various accounts, such as branch inventory, debtors, and expenses,
are maintained to monitor branch operations and assess performance. The pricing
approach employed by the head office in transferring goods to the branch determines
the nature of information recorded in these accounts, whether at cost, selling price,
or wholesale price.
