Gift in Kind in the books of receiver
Further, if you receive a gift in kind and the same is used in the business then you should do the fair value of that gift item and record the same by giving a credit to capital account.
Gift in Kind in the books of donor
In this case, the donor will credit the relevant asset 's carrying amount and take the second effect as loss in its income statement as if it is sold at zero value.
