Pre Paid Expenses.


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the accounting treatment for advance payments made to a supplier for staff uniforms. While the uniforms were paid for in March 2022 (FY 2021-22), they will be received in the next financial year (FY 2022-23). The consensus is that this should be treated as an 'advance paid to supplier' rather than a 'prepaid expense' until the goods are received.

09 March 2022 I have paid advance to supplier towards purchase of Suiting Shirting for my staff Uniform. advance paid in the month of March 22. While the uniform will be provided in next financial year i.e. FY 2022-2023

Can i treat above expenses as Prepaid Expenses in FY 2021-22.?

09 March 2022 Keep it under advance as the material is not received.

09 March 2022 Cant it be treated as Prepaid Expenses? This normally will be provided next year

09 March 2022 It's only advance not prepaid expenses.

09 March 2022 It is better to report as advance paid to supplier.
