No. it will not be treated as prior period item, AS-5 the conditions, expenses or income arising out of any error,omission during the previous period can be treated as prior period item, according to me it is not prior period item

it is simply change in estimation. change in estimate is not treated as error or omission therefore it will not be treated as prior period item.
