05 March 2012 There is a realty company which sells plots of land on installment basis. It follows the practice of recognizing sale when the sale deed is executed. Till sale deed is executed it recognizes the amount received in installment as advance received. Is this a correct method of accounting? Is there any other better method of accounting?
