sir i m on audit of IOCL, they are capitalising insurance spares.As we know insurance spares needs to be written off during the life of asset to which it belongs,this means dep will be charged retrospectively, but i have a problem that what should be done with the depreciation which relates to previous years.will it be treated as a prior period expense in the P&L?

Insurance Spares whose use is in connection with a particular asset only should be written off during the life of the asset.
Otherwise they should be written off during their own useful life.
Now, going to your question, prior period items which are not reflected in financial statements as a result of error or omission.
So, it will be trested as an prior period expenditure.
Also, important is and accounting standard interpretation which lays down the criteria whether to classify "Spares" as consumables being charged to income statement or as fixed assets being capitalized.

Sir,
I opined that omission is of earlier year's depreciation which is a prior period expenditure.
