CHAPTER 2: INSURANCE CLAIMS
Introduction
The stock kept in every business is subject to risk by loss of fire. To protect itself against
such loss the business takes up a fire insurance policy by paying premium. The chapter aims at computing the loss of stock by fire(based on closing stock on the date of fire), which can
thus be claimed as compensation from the insurance company. The following steps may be
followed to start with:
% of Gross profit on sales- this can be computed from the gross profit and sales figure of the trading account for the year prior to the year of fire GP * 100 Sales
Memorandum trading account- this trading account must be prepared from the beginning of the year of fire up to the date of fire. The GP must be calculated based on the same % as above and the balancing figure of this account will be the closing stock.
Calculation of claim- The final claim to be lodged with the insurance company must be calculated on the basis of the closing stock in the memorandum trading account as
Claim = Closing stock- Salvage+ fire fighting expenses.
Note: Salvage refers to goods saved from fire,
Fire fighting expenses are incurred to save goods from fire.

Abnormal Line of Goods
Goods which cannot be sold at the normal price or which has a slow rate of turnover (due to
obsolescence or damage) are called as abnormal goods. It is important to note that the rate of
gross profit on sales is calculated only on the basis of normal goods. Hence a separate column is prepared in the trading and memorandum trading account for the abnormal line of goods.
EXAMPLE:3 (problem with abnormal line of goods)
On 30th^ September 2012,the stock of Armstrong Ltd.was lost in fire. Calculate amount of
claim from the following available information.
Stock at cost on 01.04.2011 Rs.
Stock at cost on 31.03.2012 Rs.
Purchases less returns for year ended 31.03.2012 Rs.
Sales less returns for year ended 31.03.2012 Rs.
Purchases less returns upto 30.09.2012 Rs.
Sales less returns upto 30.09.2012 Rs.
In valuing the stock on 31.03.2012 due to obsolescence, 50% of the stock originally costing
Rs.6000 had been written off. In May 2012, 3/4 th of the stock had been sold at 90% of the
original cost and it is expected that the balance of the abnormal goods will also realize the same price. Subject to the above the gross profit remained same throughout. Stock salvaged
was Rs.7200.

Hire Purchase System refers to the system wherein, the seller of goods delivers the
goods to the buyer without transferring the ownership of goods till the last
installment is paid. Under this system the ownership will be transferred to the buyer on payment of the last installment. If the buyer makes any default the vendor has the right
to repossess the goods and the installments already paid will be treated as the Hire
Charges. The transaction may result in purchasing of goods by the buyer or in hiring
the goods. Hence the system is called Hire Purchase System.

possession of the goods at the time of signing the contract and the buyer can make the
