Hi,

My question is in order to classify as "Prepaid Expenses", do we have to really pay the expenses in advance or an accrual of liability towards is expenses is enough?

For Eg; Suppose the accounting year of a company is calender year. The rent for the period 1-8-2012 to 31-7-2013 has been given by way of Post Dated Cheques (assume 12 cheques). In this case does the rent from 1-1-2013 to 31-7-2013 to be classified as Prepaid expenses?

How to treat short term employee benefits ie unvested leaves?
For eg- an employee is expected to take 80% leaves in d next year and if he takes more than expected leaves, how the excess must be treated

If in my last query, if the contractor purchasing material with his name and after that issue a new invoice on a profit on material to the party(Contractee). Is it right? Whereas in contract agreement material is of contractor.
Is contractor can show profit on material?

My confusion is about the affect of VAT and Income Tax that if the contractor charge profit in invoice raised to the party then his vat(Output Vat-Input vat) liability will be increased. On the other hand his income from contract will decreased i.e. Contact Price-(Cost of Material in which also include profit+ other costs). Am I right or wrong?

Plz. suggest me what should be the correct accounting system for the above problem.

In calculation of share and profit before tax is given and investment is given at cost so it effect the interest of investment ,which we gonna less from profit and if yes then why?

My query is that if in the contract agreement all the material will be of contractor. And when contractor purchasing required material then, Whose name should be purchase invoice, whether contractor's name or contractee's name?

I am doing audit of a manufacturing concern in Goa. The concern manufactures excisable goods and takes credit of CENVAT (input excise and input service tax)

In case of Vat it is taking credit of local input Vat but I saw that incase of interstate sales it is paying the CST collected as it is without taking credit of input CST.(Input CST is added to purchase figure)
Note: It is filing the both VAT & CST returns.
Is this Correct?
Is there any Section in Goa VAT Act which is prescribing this treatment?
