sir,
Company publishes newspaper. Before it start production it have done survey for 6 month. Survey expenditure include all revenur expenditure like salary, paper exp. rent.
Can we transfer it into preoperative exp. and amortise in subsiquent 10 years like preliminary exp.
or
transfer whole exp. into P&L account cosidering them as revenue exp.

It seems to be revenue expenditure and hence should be expensed as incurred.
It does not satisfy the crterion of AS 10.
You may assess the criterion of AS 26. If it satisfgies then capitalise as intangible. Though first impression is that it will not.

sir it means we should not capitalise exp in any manner because it don't have future economic benefits. Sir as you know exp have already been capitalised. so what shuold be next step. should we change it retrospectively or continue with it.

If it is capitalised in past, there must be some more basis for such.
If the previous period audit is over, you may look for issues arising in the open period for audit and not reopen past files unless if it has a huge impact on true and fair view.
