To creditor

In the b/s goods in transit will be shown under the head current assets.

In p& l a/c nothing will be shown.

21 May 2009 Agree with Expert

22 May 2009 Other treatment would be to account for it as purchases since the bill is of that financial year and accoridngly follow the accrual concept.
The following entry will be passed:
Purchases A/c............Dr
To Creditor A/c

Since purchase is booked, the goods would also be included in closing stock(as stock in transit).
