06 June 2011 Can anyone clarify the following inter company transaction:

Suppose if I want to allocate salary & other cost between 2 companies, which account should i debit/Credit with regard to expenditure part.

If I debit/Credit salary account, then PF ,ESI Contribition does not match in the P & L account. Same is the case with TDS related accounts. I would have paid TDS from one company and later on when I allocate and transfer the expenses to other company then the TDS on Gross amount in P & L does not match.

OR, is there any other head under which such inter company expenses can be absorbed.

10 October 2011 Now look you may be having doubt relating to TDS, PF and ESI Contri

Look brother, All of the above a/cs are of personal nature and mere liability a/c they are not expenses a/c,

when u talk about the employer's contribution of PF and ESI

The proportionate amount of the employer's contribution should also be transferred to the Other Company

10 October 2011 The entry for the above transaction will be

Other Company A/c DR
To Employer's PF Contri
To Employer's ESI Contri A/c

the above entry to be passed with the proportionate amount of salary transferred

In case of TDS please make manual tds renciliation by reducing the amount of TDS paid on other behalf from total TDS

don't trace the amount dirrectly from the books same with case of PF & ESI
