Treatment of insurance premium.

This query is : Resolved 

16 October 2012 why insurance premium paid is treated as an expense item in accounting, despite it is received back after the policy is matured?

16 October 2012 Insurance Premium for Stocks, business assets only treated expenses item . This type of insurance only covers the risk of loss of business asset. No amount is received back after the term is over. In case of LIC where the premium is received back is an personal insurance and hence debited to capital account as drawings and not debited to business expenses.

18 October 2012 It is a satisfactory answer.
Thank You !
