If the event is known and the amount can be decided,you should make provision,provided it is material.

You can make a provision for advertising expenses against the bills and payment can be made in further. TDS deducted also paid on on before 30th April, 2012 instead of 4th April, 2012.

You should make provision for advertisement expense in FY 2011-12, since invoice is dated 30th March 2012 (which falls in FY 2011-12), and pay the TDS on or before 30th April 2012.
