Model - 5 : Theory
Introduction: Hire purchase system refers to that system where the buyer undertakes to pay
the price of the asset bought, by Installments (which include interest) to acquire the
possession immediately, but the title passes to the buyer only on the payment of the last
Installment. For hire purchaser it is asset and for hire vege is goods.
Special Features of Hire Purchase Agreement
1. Possession: The hire vendor transfers only pos fn of the goods to the hire purchaser
immediately after the contract for hire purch: fade
2. Installments: The goods are delivered J ire vendor on the condition that the hire
purchaser should pay the amount in pepfodibat Installments.
3. Down Payment: The hire purchaseQ@xperally makes a down payment i.e. an amount on
signing the agreement.
4. Constituents of Hire purchase Installments: Each Installment consists partly of a
finance charge (interest) and partly of a capital payment.
5. Ownership: The property in goods is to pass to the hire purchaser on the payment of the
last Installment and exercising the option conferred upon him under the agreement.
6. Repossession: In case of default in respect of payment of even the last Installment, the
hire vendor has the right to take the goods back without making any compensation.
Hire Purchase Agreement as distinguished from Sal
1. Passage of title: Under a sale the title in the goods passes to the buyer as soon as the
transaction is complete, while the title in case of hire purchase agreement passes to the
buyer only after the last payment is made
2. Right to Sale: In case of sale the buyer can dispose of the goods in any way he likes after
the sale transaction is complete, but a buyer under hire purchase agreement does not
acquire that right before he acquires the title by making the last payment.
3. Sue Vs. Re-possession: In case of sale on credit the seller can sue the buyer for the
payment of the price outstanding, but a seller under hire purchase agreement can
repossess the goods sold in case of default by the buyer in payment of any Installment.
The payments made till the repossession can be forfeited by the seller in lieu of the rent for
the use of the goods,
4, Interest: In case of sale on prompt cash basis, the price does not include any interest, but
in case of sale under hire purchase agreement, the Installments except the deposit (Down
payment) include interest,
IPCC_38e_ Accounts_Hire Purchase System & Instalment sale transaction, 44No.1 for CAICWA & MECICEC MASTER MINDS
5. Right to return: In case of sale, once the goods are sold they cannot be retumed by the
buyer normally, but in case of sale under hire purchase agreement, the buyer can either
retain or return the goods,

4. The parties to the contract are called
hire-purchaser and hire-vendor.
2. The ownership in the goods passes to
the hire purchaser only when he has paid
all the stipulated number of Installments.
3. If the hire-purchaser makes a default in
payment of an Installment, the hire-
vendor gets the right to repossess the
goods.
4, The hire purchaser can terminate the
contract. He will return the goods but he
will not be required to pay the remaining
The parties to the contract are called
buyer and seller.
The ownership in the goods passed from
seller to buyer as soon as the contract is,
signed,
If the buyer makes a default in payment
of an Installment, the seller can only sue
for the recovery of the amount unpaid.
The buyer cannot terminate the contract
and escape the liability of the payment
Installments. However, he may be
required to pay the termination charges
mentioned in the contract.

the hire purchaser under an hire purchase aareenete
Sptains the goods and rights to use the
of the remaining Installments.
jount which the hirer is required to pay to the hire
As this amount also includes interest (also called
finance charges), it is always more than cash price of the goods. Thus, Hire-purchase
Price = Cash Price + Interest Charged
5. Down Payment: Under the hire-purchase system as well as Installment system, normally
the hire-purchaser or buyer is required to pay an amount (which is a part of hire purchase
price or total amount payable under the contract) at the time of signing of the contract. This
is called Down Payment,
6. Hire Purchase Installment: Hire purchase Installment is the amount which the hire
purchaser has to pay at regular interval upto certain period as specified in the agreement
to obtain the ownership of the asset purchased under a hire purchase agreement. It
comprises of principal amount and the interest on the unpaid amount.
In the books of Hire Purchaser: To have proper accounting record, some information is
required in regard to the hire purchase transactions. They are (1) date of purchase of the
asset; (2) cash price of the asset; (3) hire purchase price of the asset; (4) the amount of down
payment (5) number and amount of each Installment; (6) rate of interest ; (7) method and rate
of depreciation; and (8) date of closing the books of accounts,
Before passing journal entries the student should consider the make-up of the hire purchase

hire purchaser,

Method 1: Asset taken on hire purchase basis should be considered like ordinary purchase
by the Hire Purchaser. These transactions can be recorded either in Cost Price Method.
However, it is necessary to disclose this fact by classifying it as “Assets on Hire Purchase.”
Accordingly, amount due to the hire vendor should also be shown in his books as a liability —
“hire purchase creditors" with additional such classification of amount of hire purchase
Installment due and amount of hire purchase Installment not yet due.
Cost Price Method: (Known as Credit Purchase with Interest Method) in this method acquired
is brought into account at the Cash Price.

Sales Value Method: A business that sells relatively large items on hire purchase may adopt
this method. Under this method, hire purchase sale is treated as a credit sale. The only
exception is that the vendor agrees to accept payments in Installments and for that he charges
interest. Generally, a special Sales Day Book is maintained for recording all sales under hire
purchase agreement. The amount due from the hire purchaser at the end of the year is shown
in the Balance sheet on the assets side as Hire Purchase Debtors,

Repossession of Goods (or) Return of good:
Meaning: If the hire purchaser fails to pay any Installment, the hire vendor has the right to
take back the goods from the hire purchaser. Often the seller gives some scope to the buyer
leaving a portion of goods sold, so that the latter can somehow continue his business.
Therefore re-possession can be of two types.
