what will be the treatment like :

Thanking You

25 April 2009 Treat the software as fixed asset purchased.

Then treat the cost of asset as loan received from supplier.

Charge depreciation for the asset.

Whenever you are making payment then reduce the loan content.

If by chance the company has failed to make the payment and software person has taken back his software. At that time you should treat it as sale of asset and the loss or profit at that time should be booked in the books.

25 April 2009 Agree with the expert.
