Dear Expert,

Please help me out in the following situation:

My Mgt. wants me to book the travel cost (Abroad) as revenue to the Client, my argument is it is just a reimbursement, no proper clarity in the 'Contract'. It just says travel reimbursable at actual. Client based at US, billing is done in US$.

If it is possible what should be the description made in the invoice? and in which head it should be accounted?

kindly suggest at your earliest.

Regards
Suresh

Dear users,

I heard about developer agreement in construction business where owner of the land give right to another person to develop residential or commercial or any other buildings on his land

can anyone tell me in details about such business
or give me link where i can get full idea of such agreements ......

I welcome members opinion on the accounting aspects related to the following. transaction.

Date of Sales Contract - 15th April 2012
Nature: Supply of Cotton -1 lac bales @ USD 3.5/bale on or before 1st May 2012
Exchange Rate on 15th April 2012: 1 USD = INR 50
Forward Cover booked on 15th April for 1 USD = Rs. 50.5


Date of Sales: 1st May 2012 ( relating to the above sales contract)
Invoice Value : USD 3,50,000/- (1 lac cotton bales @ USD 3.5/ bale)
Exchange Rate on 1st May 2012 : 1 USD = INR 53 ( as per Bill if lading - customs quoted rate)

Payment Received Date : 15th May 2012
Amount Received : USD 3,50,000
Amount realised : INR 1.7676 crore ( Based on forward cover taken on date of contract)
Exchange Rate on 15th May : 1 USD = Rs. 54

My questions:
1. What is the exchange rate to use for booking the sales? Is it the exchange rate on date of sale ( i.e Rs. 53 )or is it the rate for which forward cover is booked?

2. Since the sales contract precedes the actual sales transaction, and forward cover is taken on the date of sales contract itself, is there an accounting entry required to show the liability and receivables in the books once the sales contract is booked?


Please advise on the scheme of accounting entries in such a situation.

Regards
