Hi Vinayak

the simple treatment is that open a account in indirect exp. "Loss of stock due to _____" and "Stock lost a/c" in Purchases. pass following journal entry

Loss of stock due to _____ Dr. Rs______

To Stock lost a/c Rs ______

(Being stock lost due to ______)

on other hand while valuing closing stock the lost stock will not be taken into account that will decrease profit by that amount and your GP ratio will also not be effected.

In Simple words, Deferred Tax Liability is a Provision for Future Taxation.

It simply means that the company will definitely have a tax Liability of that much in the future years. This is

because in the years to come the Depreciation as per Income Tax Act will be lesser that the Depreciation as

per Books of Accounts. Hence in these years the Company will have to create a Deferred Tax Asset

Dear Sushan ji,

Please create a ledger as "Loss of goods (Stock) due to Theft/Fire (as the case may be) etc" under Indirect Expenses and another ledger as "Goods / Stock lost due to Theft/Fire"(with inventory activated) and group it under Purchase Accounts. If insurance claim is receivable, then create ledger Insurance Claim Receivable (under Current Assets) and then pass following JV;

Dr. Loss of goods due to theft xx

Dr. Insurance Claim Receivable xx

Cr. Goods/Stock Lost due to..... xx

when claim is received......

Dr Bank xx

Cr Insurance Claim Receivable xx
