01 October 2011 I think you case pertain to book adjustment. One of the creditor is adjusted with one of the Debtors account.

This is nothing but book adjustment and you must take account confirmation and such adjustment certificate from both the parties.

01 October 2011 but the question does not specify that mr.rao is the creditor and it could also be that debtors of 10000 wrongly recorded as creditors ?

"which was also included in creditors for 12000"

03 October 2011 well, i understand your state of mind

it happens at time that a prty is having both kind of transactions with the same party,
i.e. supplying some goods to the same client and also receiving the different kind of goods.

03 October 2011 the case can also be like that
when the advance was given to the supplier, it was debited in Sundry Debtor category,

when the bill is finally received form the party, he will be credited in Sundry creditors,

now the adjustment of advance is made
