Calculation of average capital employed

This query is : Resolved 

22 April 2015 Sir

Kindly answer my query.
While calculating Rectified PAT (to find out avg. Capital employed) Why don't we consider
overvaluation of Stock , despite of the fact that it is an error.
Also, please clarify what is the logic behind this formula of deducting 1/2 Rectified PAT from closing Capital Employed to arrive at average capital employed.

22 April 2015
1/2 pat is deducted because u need average capital employed....

and full pat means profit for the year.. to make it average we divide it by 2

so that the final calculation of average capital empl. wil b more near to perfect

22 April 2015 overvaluation wil not effect the average capital employed... thats why we ignore this

22 April 2015 Sir

Why Overvaluation of closing stock not considered as an error while calculating rectified PAT???
Please Explain.
Also , clarify what kind of rectifications are we talking about here??

23 April 2015 because this required error wil have two effect.. one for addition one for deletion in opening and closing stock... so u can ignore that

24 April 2015 Thanks Sir for Clarifying my doubt.
