Ours is a Housing Co-Operatives with 145 members. One Member has donated Rs.2.3 Lakh to Buy one Ambulance (Maruti Van). Our Income & Exp. A/c is credited with Interest received against Fixed Deposit i.e., Rs.20,000 per annum. In addition to other expenses if depreciation @ 5% is charged to P & L A/c. a Net Loss figure appears. We have debited the Asset A/c. and credited the Donations A/c. with the cost of Van. Is there any way to credit any Reserve/Liab.Account instead of Donation and adjust the depreciation directly to that Reserve/Liab.a/c and crediting the asset account. This may help us to avoid debiting the P&L Account. What we shall do ? Please suggest. basabroy817@gmail.com
