Final accounts

Sir

In the balance sheet, always the new provision for bad debt is deducted from the Debtors and then provision for discount on debtors is calculated on it.

but when old provision exceed bad debt and we have to create new provision which will be calculated on (Debtors-bad-debts).

then new provision automatically includes surplus old provision which is deducted from pr. year debtors for calculating pr. year provision on discount on debtors.

so, this means double deduction of surplus provision in current year.

so, i think that we have to deduct current year provision for calculating provision on discount on debtors instead of new provision.

for ex.

debtors= 200000(at the end of year)
bad-debt= 3600
provision on doubtful debt(1-4-20xx)= 7500

Adjustments:

1.)further bad debts= 2000
2.)we have to create new provision for doubtful debts @5% on debtors.

therefore, new provision is calculated as

200000-2000= 198000

198000O*5%= 9900.

therefore current year provision is Rs.8000.

but 7500-3600-2000= 1900 i.e surplus

surplus+C.Y provision
1900+8000= 9900

i.e it includes surplus resulting in double counting for calculating provision for discount on debtors.

because 7500 includes 1900 which is ded. previously and also includes in 9900 and ded. in c.y also.
