Goodwill

Dear Expert,

I had a query.

A company X invests Rs.100 in company Y. X takes over Assets (Rs.100)& Liabilities (Rs.50) from Y. Net Assets taken over is Rs.50. So will the balance Rs.50 (paid Rs.100 & Net Assets Rs.50) be treated in his new company as Goodwill as per the entry below?

Assets Debit Rs.100
Liabilities Credit Rs.50
Goodwill Debit Rs.50
Share Premium Credit Rs.100

Kindly advise if other than Goodwill any other entry is an option. Because if we bring in Goodwill same will be subject to Amortization.

Thank you in advance.

Adjustments

Dear friends,

I have a doubt regarding bad debts provision. what happened was in order to bring down profit, i picked some old debtors and transferred them to bad debts account.But instead of crediting the debtors ledger i created another head under debtors as provision for doubtful and bad debts and passed the entry as follows :

Bad Debts a/c Dr
To Provision for Bad & Doubtful debts.

My question is in case after mayb 1 or 2 years if any of the above debtors settle or give us credit note, what will be the treatment in that particular year..such that the amount can be credited from the debtor account and provision for bad and doubtful debts account too..

Pls reply asap and thanks a lot for the reply in advance...
