19 May 2008Hii friends,
we have some materials bonded with customes authorities which are pending for customs clearing. Can i include these materials in purchase and can i consider this at the time of stock valuation.All payments are made and only customs clearence is to be done. We can clear this material at any time by paying the required duty. We gave kept it there just because of the lack of space in our godown. So can't i include the same in purchase and closing stock.?

hi ,
how can we credit goods in transit into trading account. It does not affect profit and loss account. I think it is only a balance sheet item as current asset. So how it comes to trading account.?
