Well if you look at it by the basics you will see both use the same Net income = revenue - expenses. However the income statement for the service company subtracts the operating expenses from the revenues to arrive at net income. The merchandising company subtracts the cost of merchandising from the revenue to arrive at gross profit. It then subtracts all other operating expenses to arrive at net income.
Merchandising income primarily consists of three components: revenue from sales of goods, cost of goods sold (COGS), and gross profit. Revenue is generated from selling merchandise, while COGS includes all direct costs associated with producing or purchasing the goods sold. Gross profit is calculated by subtracting COGS from total revenue, representing the income available to cover operating expenses and generate profit. Additionally, other factors like markdowns, discounts, and returns can also influence merchandising income.
To calculate the Net Income of a merchandising business, you start with the total revenue generated from sales. From this amount, subtract the cost of goods sold (COGS), which is the direct cost of acquiring or producing the merchandise sold. Then, deduct operating expenses, such as selling, general, and administrative expenses. The resulting figure is the Net Income, which reflects the business's profitability over a specific period.
Merchandising refers to the marketing practice in which a product or a service brand or image is used to market or sell another product or service. Merchandising is also an income generating practice especially for intellectual property product owners.

In a merchandising company, the income measurement process involves several key steps: first, the company calculates its total sales revenue from merchandise sold during a specific period. Next, it deducts the cost of goods sold (COGS), which includes the purchase price of the inventory sold, to determine the gross profit. Operating expenses, such as selling, general, and administrative costs, are then subtracted from the gross profit to arrive at the operating income. Finally, any other income or expenses, such as interest or taxes, are accounted for to determine the net income for the period.

As you can see, in merchandising companies we have more special components of revenues and expenses than service companies. Besides, merchandising have two different systems periodic inventory system and perpetual inventory system. Each system has own way to count goods.

Merchandising companies do not calculate the raw materials placed in production or cost of goods manufactured. Merchandisers purchase goods from suppliers instead of manufacturing goods. The cost of these purchases from suppliers is often called net purchases in the income statement, in contrast to cost of goods manufactured in a manufacturer’s income statement. The net purchases line consists of purchases, purchases returns and allowances, purchases discounts, and freight in. Merchandisers do not use the schedule of cost of goods manufactured (and related schedule of raw materials placed in production). Merchandisers use an account called merchandise inventory, or simply inventory, instead of finished goods inventory. This reflects that merchandisers do not produce goods.
There are different ways in how two income statements are prepared. For example: the income statement (also known as P&L) of a merchandising company consists of Revenue, Expenses (related to the sales volume through the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) and General & Administrative Expense (G&SA), which all result in Net Income. The income statement of a Service company consists of Service Revenue minus any Expenses related to that service, which results in Net Income.Another way to look at it is that inventory never leaves the balance sheet until it is physically sold to a customer, which transfers it to Cost of Goods Sold.
Both statements are difference in this way that in merchandising income statement there is only one purchases items while in manufacturing income statement there is complete manufacturing account is also prepared to show manufacturing process as well.
A traditional income statement would differ depending on whether a business was service-oriented, a merchandiser, or a manufacturer. The manufacturing company transforms raw material into finished goods through the use of labor and factory facilities and a merchandising company, such as a retail furniture store which buys finished furniture and sells it in the same form i.e sells the goods it buys without changing the basic form. The income statement which is prepared by a merchandising concern needs no calculations of cost of goods manufactured. But the income statements prepared by the manufacturing concern requires the calculations for the cost of goods manufactured. So the financial statements prepared by a manufacturing company are more complex than the statements prepared by a merchandising company. The manufacturer company involves many costs that the merchandisers do not have. It is clear that the manufacturing company will have a more complex and varied cost components vs. a merchandiser and a service organization.
For the first entry, yes, pretty much. If a company receives money from Income that is recorded as income and cash, cash being the asset account. If the company records the income as a recievable, meaning the customer hasn't paid yet, then the account would be an Accounts Receivable, also an asset account. Though income is recorded on the Income Statement and not the Balance Sheet, the revenue from said income becomes an asset, adjusting entries later on the books will take care of anything else, such as merchandise, inventory, cost of goods sold (if a merchandising company) or other expenses related to said income.
To do a budgeted income statement for a merchandising firm you will need to look over their sales budget and cash budget. You will also need to prepare a finished goods inventory and come up with an administrative expense budget.?æ
