how can wip be handed over as a settlement claim to the partner
partners capital a/c. Dr.
to work in progress

what about the difference in amount as i already mentioned the amt of WIP more than partners retirement claim.???

firm can recover the excess claim amount

sir , construction companies do have WIP until there project is copleted . further no degree of completion is mentioned for wip , it can be that plots recorded as wip may have minor work left out , still they will be categorised as wip , as such 2 plots included in WIP have been given for retirement settlement claim.

further we have section 45(4) which talks only about capital asset , i found silence in law for wip/ inventory distributed , so the problem is if i record it as a part of sale , how should i account for the loss in the books on such transaction???
