G/R always comes.!!!!!!!!

Closing entry is given for stock value at the end of the year..........!!!!!!!!

Bonus issue: depends on your entry for the bonus issue..!!!!!!!!!

If you completed the valuation of closing stock before preparing the trial balance , then you can include that in trial balance also. Then treatment will be changed if not given like a adjustment. Only include in balance sheet but not in trial balance if included in trial balance.

Please correct me friends if am wrong. Thank you.

Thanku for sharing.smile.

Trail Balance is always based upon the closing balances on the date .let it be 31/03/2011 then we take all balances existing on dat date.whether its General reserve or any other reserve .

2)If we have closing stock on the records we can include it in the trail balance but be assure dat when we have opening stock,purchases,closing stock ;it means we had eanred sumthing i.e is differnce of cl.stock +sales -Opening Stock-purchase=profit..so when we take closing balnce we have be assure 2 take Profit or loss to tally the trail

3)Bonus issue doesnt effect trail sumtimes.if bonus shares are issued from security premium account .balance of security premium account reduced and capital increases.generally it doesnt flow of any cash..

Plz rectify me if any1 found any mistake in my statement

thanks
