Accounting entry - Asset no more available

An asset WDV at the end of a year is Re.1. After taking physical count of stock it was noticed that the asset is lost ( not available with the company). In this case what accounting entry needs to be passed to remove the asset from the books of accounts?

It is an abnormal loss for the company,, so the entry is as follows:

         Entry:        Abnormal loss A/c Dr.

                                 To Asset A/c

                           P/L A/c                     Dr.

                                 To Abnormal A/c
