A company has taken a flat on rent for its directors. The company has bought the furnishings of the owner. What is the accounting treatment for the same??
Furnishings include fridge, stove, gas bottles, washing machine, television etc.
The company intends to use the flat as guest house in case the director shifts from the flat.

Furnishings,since purchased by the company, may be capitalized in respective heads and to be depreciated at the rates prescribed in schedule XIV of the Companies Act,1956. In the fixed assets register also, the place where it is put in may be filled up as 'in rented premises' bearing door number including full address.
