amalgamation

This query is : Resolved 

13 March 2011 sir,
in amalgamation, i had seen in various places P/L a/c is debited and credited(when difference between asset and liabilities taken over, amount paid to such helpers etc.) is it correct. i have studied that P/L a/c only contains nominal account. pls give me an answer

13 March 2011 i think u r talkin about accounting of amalgamation under POOLING OF INTEREST (MERGER) method.. There, if there's a debit balance, p&l debited while for crdiet balance its general reserve.....

17 March 2011 sir, if it is purchase? p/l is debited or not?

17 March 2011 in case of "amalgamation in the nature of purchase" then difference will be transfer in Goodwill a/c or Capital Reserve a/c.
