Trial balance
Accountancy
In this illustration(pic attached) we are asked to correctly prepare trail balance as on 31st march 2020, so when we are answering shouldn't we take the inventory value as on 31.03.2020(refer the lines below the question) instead of inventory on 1.4.2019(which is in table). However in solution they took inventory value as on 1.4.19 which is actually previous year's detail. Kindly explain. Thankyou.

Sir, the given inventory is opening inventory the goods which are not sold last year it's essential to show the previous years stock in our accounts and the second thing you were talking about is closing inventory, yes we take it in the books of accounts but in this case it will be in adjustment part (hope you know final accounts) as to make a dual effect it is a part of adjustment
