9.1 INTRODUCTION

Hire purchase system is a special system of purchase and sale. When goods are bought under the system. The purchaser pays the price in instalments which my be monthly, quarterly, six monthly, yearly or any other period. The buyer acquires the possession of the goods immediately on signing the hire purchase agreement but becomes its owner only on paying the last instalment. In case the buyer defaults in the payment of any instalment, ,the seller will have a right to repossess the goods from the buyer and forfeit the amount already received treating it as a hire charged. But if the buyer pays all the instalments on the due dates. The seller has on right to possess the goods from the buyer.

9.2 HIRE PURCHASE SYSTEM
Hire purchase may be defined as. “ a transaction where goods are purchased and sold with the stipulation that payment will be made by instalments, each instalments will be treated a hire charge so that if default is made in the payment of even the last instalment, the seller will be entitled to take away the goods without compensation the hire purchase in any way and in case all instalments are paid, the goods will be treated as sold and property will pass to the purchaser.”

Features of Hire Purchase System.
a. Purchase is on credit.
b. Purchase price is paid in instalments.
c. Goods are delivered to the buyer.
d. Buyer has a right to use these goods.
e. Owenership in the goods remains with the seller till the payment to last instalments.
f. Hire purchaser becomes the owner of the goods on payment of the last instalment.
g. It is the duty of the purchaser to keep the goods in good conditions till the payment of last instalment.
h. Hire purchaser has a right to terminate the agreement at any time.
i. If default is made in payment of instalment to the vendor, he can take possession of the goods subject to legal requirement.

Important Terms used in HP Agreement
Cash Price
It is the amount for which an article can be purchased immediately by making lump sum payment, without there being any facility of instalment.

Hire Purchase Price
It means the total sum payable by the hirere under a Hire purchase agreement. This includes any deposit or intitial payment, but does not include any sum payable as penalty or compensation for a breach of agreement.
Thus
Hire Purchase Price = Cash Price + Interest Charged.
Net Cash Price
It mean the cash price of the goods as required to be stated in the hire purchase agreement less any deposit. Deposit refers to intitial payment whether paid or credited to be paid as per the tems of the hire purchase agreement.

Down Payment
It is the amount required to be paid by the buyer on signing the agreement under hire purchase or instalment system. It is a part of hire purchase price. The Hire purchaser may possess the goods after making the down payment. Some times the hire vendor may allow the hire purchaser to possess the goods even without making the down payment.

Instalment System
In is a system of outright purchase with the facility to pay the price in certain instalments inj future together with interest at the agreed rate. Under the instalment system. The title to goods passes from the seller to the buyer immediately on signing the contract.
Accounting Procedure
Transaction relating to instalment system of sale are recorded in the books of both the parties in the same way as under hire purchase. As in the case of ordinary credit sales, the total price should be debited to the purchaser and credited to the sales account by the vendor on signing the contract . Further , as the total interest is also agreed upon at time of making the contract, the same should also be debited to the purchaser along with the sales price/. Howefer, the total interest as agreed upon does not accrue on the date of transaction & hence should not be credited to interest account, the same should be credited to interest suspense account. As and when interest falls due, the amount of interest applicable to the instalment is transferred from the interest suspense account to interest account. The balance in the interest suspense account is shown in the Balance Sheet.

The accounting procedure stated above were resembles the interest suspense method followed under hire purchases system. So the accounting entries in both the system are the same. But under instalment system the terms seller vendor shall be used instead of Hire seller/Hire vendor.

9.3 Distinction between Hire purchase and Instalment systems

Hire Purchase System. Instalment System
i) The Parties to the contract are called hire purchase & hire vendor.

ii)The relation between the hire purchaser & the hire vendor is that of a bailey & bailer,. As a result, the hire purchaser has no right of disposal of goods till the becomes the owner.

iii)It the Hire purchaser has taken as much care of the goods as is required to the taken by the bailer he is not responsible for the loss of goods.

iv) The property in the goods passes from the hire vendor to hire purchases usually on paying the last instalment or the minimum amount of instalment as per provisions of the hire purchase Act.1972

v) If the Hire purchaser makes a
default in payment of an instalment,
the hire vendor can repossess the
goods. i) The parties in the contract are called
buyer & seller.

ii) It is a contract of sale No bailment is involved. As a results the buyer can dispose off the goods as he likes.

iii) As the buyer becomes the owner on signing of the contract any loss of goods will have to the borne by the buyer.

iv) The property in the goods passes to the buyer as soon as the contract is signed

v) If the buyer makes any default in payment of an instalment the seller can only sue for balance of the amount unpaid together with interest, he cannot repossess the goods.



9.4 Accounting Treatment for Hire Purchase system.
Accounting records are to be kept both by the lbuyer and seller. The method of recording hire purchase transation in the account books depends upon nature of goods is(i) where they are of considerable value or (ii) Comparatively small value.
Goods of considerable value
There are two methods of recording hire purchase transactions in the books of the buyer. They are.
1. Credit Purchase Method
2. Asset Accrual Method.
(I) Credit Purchase Method ( First Method)
Under the system the goods purchased on hire purchase is treated as property of the buyer on the assumption that asset has been purchased with the intention of paying all the instalments on the due date. Under this method the following entries are to be passesd in the books of the buyer and vendor.

Calculation of cash price when the rate of interest and different instalment only are given.

Sometimes, the cash price of the asset bought under hire purchase system may not be available . But the amount of different instalments and rate of interest will be given . In such case, the price is arrived at by back calculation. The procedure to calculate cash price is to take up the final instalment first and to deduct the interest from it.

Rate of Interest
Formula: -------------------------
100 + rate of interest

Suppose A owes B.Rs.100, interestmm being 10% p.a. At the end of the year A will have to pay Rs.100 out of which Rs.10 is for interest. Hence 10/110 of the sum due at the end of the year is interest . If this interest is deducted from the sum due at the end of the year, the residual will be the sum due at the beginning of the year.
Calculation of Interest when rate is not given
If cash price and each instalment amount together with down payment are given but rate of interest is not given, then total interest will be calculated by deducting cash price from the total hire purchase price. Total interest should be divided in the ratio of amount outstanding for each year.

9.4.2 Default and Repossession
In the event of not paying an instalment due, the hire vendor reserves the right to take back the goods from the purchaser. In such a case the vendor can also forfeit the amonts received from the purchaser hither to considering them only as hire. When the vendor sells different goods to the same party under hire purchase system, he may, at his optin either reposses al the goods or a part therof in case of default. Thus the repossession may be either complete or partial depending upon the circumstances of each case.

Complete Repossession
Entries for interest and depreciation up to the date of default will be passed in the books of the buyer & vendor. As the payment of the particular instalment is not made, it is not recorded. On repossession, the buyer will close the accounts of the vendor by transferring its balance to asset accounts by debiting the ventor’s account & crediting the asset account. Any balance in the asset account will be either profit or loss on repossession which will be transferred to the Profit and Loss account.

The hire vendor will close account of the hire purchaser by transferring its balance to “Repossessed stock account” This account will further be debited with expenses incurred in repairing and credited with sales price. The balance will represent profit or loss on repossessed goods and will be transferred to Profit and Loss account.

Partial Repossession
In the use also entries for interest and depreciation will be passed in the bookds of the hire purchasera and hire vendor for the period till the date of default in payment. Both the hire purchaser and hire seller will pass entries in their respective books for the agreed value of the assets which has been taken back by the vendor. Generaly the vendor takes back the asset at a higher rate of depreciation. The hire purchaser will calculate the value of the asset left with him after partialrepossession and caryy down the amount to next priod. The asset account balance will show profit or loss on default and will be transferred to profit and loss account. In the books of the vendor. The repossessed assets account it debited with any amount spent for repairing it and credited with the sales price. The difference in this account is the profit or loss of the vendor in connection with repossession.

9.4.3 When the goods are of comparatively small value (Hire Purchase Trading Account)
When hire purchase transactins are numerous, and the goods sold are of small value. The hire vendor may find it difficult, expensive and time consuming to calculate interest on their sales individually. The vendors of such items usually consider interest as part of the selling price and do not calculatd and charge interest separately. The method followed in such cases is called “ Goods out” or Stock method.

Under this method, goods sent out on hire purchase are treated as stock. No individual account of any hire purchase is opened on the basis of double entry. The details of all the transaction are recorded in a register which is only a memorandum, not forming part of double entry. The register, out of which the necessary information pertaining to each customer is collected. Forms the basis of preparing a Hire Purchase Trading Account, which is the most important account under this method. The hire purchase trading account may be prepared on the basis of cost or selling price. In either case it is prepared on the basis of double entry as under.

Note: Interest is calculated on the total of cash price remaining unpaid at the end of each year.

Example-2 (When rate of interest is not givein)
On 1st January 1980 Messrs .ABC and Co., took delivery from XYZ and Co., of a machine of hire purchase system .Rs.1,500 being paid on delivery and the balance in five instalments of Rs.3,000 each , payable annually on 31st December . The cash price fo the machine was Rs. 15,000. Calculated the amount of interest paid for each year.

Solution
In case where the rate of interest is missing , total interest which is the difference between total cash price paid and total instalment price paid is Rs.1,500 (Rs.16,500 – 15,000) is simply divided in the ratio of outstanding balance of instalment price as done below

Interest charge should be:
In 1st year 5/15 x Rs.1,500 = Rs.500
In 2nd year 4/15 x Rs.1,500 = Rs.400
In 3rd Year 3/15 x Rs.1,500 = Rs.300
In 4th year 2/15 x Rs.1,500 = Rs. 200
In 5th year 1/15 x Rs. 1,500 = Rs. 100

Calculation of Depreciation
Since depreciation is charged under straight line method. The same amount (56,000x10% = 5,600) is to be charged for all the three years.
Example -
Rakesh purchased a motor car on Hire purchase system. The total cash price of the car is Rs.15,980 payable Rs.4,000 down and three instalments of Rs.6000 Rs. 5,000 and Rs.2000 payable at the end of first, second and third year respectively. Interest is charged at 5%
You are required to prepare leder accounts in the books of Rakesh, Rate of depreciation is 10% on straight line method. (Calculation are to be made to the nearest rupees)
