Closing stock is an asset and will have a debit balance.
Both opening and closing stock also has debit balance. But one is on debit side and the other is on debit of profit and loss account

Opening stock is generally given in TB. Closing stock in adjustment. When you bring the adjustment in final accounts, entry is Closing Stock (Dr) [Asset account] To Profit and Loss Ac.

No. One is cost and other is income.

No. One is cost and other is income.
But in trading account we have OS +PUR+D.E ON DEBIT SIDE AND CLOSING STOCK on credit side which means if closing stock is reduced we should get the amount equal to sales Even formula for cost of goods sold is also same So why these two are different

Gross profit?
If we add sales and closing stock and deduct the debit items said above we get gross profit But if we keep aside sales and deduct only closing stock from the debit items we get amount of sales

No. You will not get. You can put some numbers and see.
Ok sir If we have to pay rent to A in this year which is is not paid Can we write RENT A/C To A or only rent a/c to rent payable
