AS -12

My client receives exemption in Sales Tax based on the salary given to the staff for first 5 years of company in existence.

We get the amt. of exemption after 5 years completion.

Now, on year end, the position is that we recd. grant of say Rs. 100 and take set off in Sales tax for Rs. 40 and balance Rs. 60 still stands in VAT Receivable A/c (Govt. Grant).

What is the proper accounting treatment at the time of getting Exemption or Grant , at the time of monthly set off with VAT Payable . How to show Grant in Financial statements?

Basically, I am confused whether it is a revenue grant or capital grant.

Prior period item

Query:
A company carrying a business of establishing pipelines beneath the surface. It made a contract with another company to place the pipelines for which that company agreed to give a sum of Rs. 10 lakh. During initial stages company expected the total costs will be upto Rs. 5 lakh and the rest will be their profit.

At the time of digging the workers found a rocky surface coming in between of their site. Thus to destruct that, the company purchased dynamites due to which it went high on costs and the total cost came out to be Rs. 15 lakh. Because of which the company suffered a loss of Rs. 5 lakh for which the provision was not made by that company.

Will this be a prior period item or not?

Company is in the business of manpower supply. so it has to take employees on its payroll. for those employees, company enters into an agreement with the customer that at the time of their retirement, if gratuity is payable then it will be fully reimbursed by that client. Now at the time of making provision as per AS 15, how the provision will be calculated. Company has to provide for its core employees which is ok. but for reimbursable part what treatment should be given in the accounts
