* Ours is a Housing Co-Operative Society(147 members). * One Member has donated one Ambulance Van. * We have debited Asset A/c. and Credited Donations A/c. * Our only income is interest earned from Fxd.Deposit in Bank which is a meagre amount. * The P & L a/c shows NET LOSS when Depreciation on Van (5% on cost) is transferred to P&L A/c. Is there any way out to carry Book adj. between Asset a/c and Asset Revaluation Reserve a/c (by transferring cost of van from Donation a/c), thus avoiding the P&L A/c ? Please suggest.
