21 June 2010 Understated or overstated

If an expense is of Rs. 25000 say rent but we expensed off only 24500. So, it is been understated by Rs. 500 and it need to expensed off in the profit and loss account.

Similarly, in the above case, if the above expense is debited in the profit and loss account by Rs. 26000 so it can be said it overstated by the Rs. 1000 and it needs to be reversed.
