22 December 2009 hello Gemin
Pl. tell that whether Ex. Diff should be booked in the third entry while dr. "Cash-USD a/c" .Say $=Rs.49 then the entry would be-

Cash USD dr. 4900
Ex. Diff.dr. 100
Tour expenses 45000
To staff adv. 50000

Since the co. is recording the surrendered USD the above entry should be correct. What you say?
Consequently 4th entry will also be changed !
please post your valuable suggestion.
