18 June 2016 We as a nuclear family is residing in an ancestral home. As our family grows we have constructed a additional floor on this property for living. Me, my father and my mother has contributed the capital to construct this additional floor. My query is that as this is a very huge expenditure, could me, my father and my mother can debit our personal capital accounts to show this expenditure as the title of this property does not belong to us but to my deceased great grandfather and the asset created out of this expenditure will not reflect in our balance sheets. If not, then what would be the treatment of this expenditure.
