For Import Purchase

You should consider the rate applied in Bill of Entry. At the time of payment to the supplier please transfer the diference between Bank Rate and Bill of Entry rate in 'Exchange Rate Fluctuation A/c' .

If there is any advance payment made to supplier then you should consider exchange rate on which the  Bank debited to your account. in this case no 'Exchange Rate Fluctuation' accounted
