20 April 2018 Dear Madam/Sirs,

As a society Accountant, discovered an error in Reserves & Surplus opn balance FY2016-17 of 5L short, which affects closing bal. This is offset by Investment A/c of equal amount in asset side. Now since closing takes place in FY 2017-18, this error noticed, and need to know what action needs be taken ? Income tax return filed from income statemet which is somehow correct. Error only in audited balance-sheet 2016-17. Financial statements not yet filed in Registrar of Societies FY2016-17

What are the implications and what needs be done in FY 2017-18 closing.

Thanks n regards Alex G.

20 April 2018 Credit reserves and surplus 5 lacs and debit the asset side mistake 5 lacs.
Asset side also you should have committed mistake.

20 April 2018 Yes Mr Seetharaman, Assets FD undervalued by 5 lakh, Now I should do the first entry as you said and also do a second entry for FD in the same manner?

Thanks and regards
Alex G.
