10 September 2010 See... if its a company , the entry will be passed as per companies act, where profit / loss on individual asset will be calculated.

But in the block of asset concept, the entry will be :

Cash / Bank Dr.

To Asset head Cr.




10 September 2010 Entry will be simply for the amount recd as sale proceeds.


12 September 2010 But the difference b/w the wdv & the sales proceeds cannot be shown in the fixed asset schedule as closing wdv, right as the asset is sold?So how should it be presented in the audit report and the entry to be passed in the books?
