Could you please advise on the following?
Situation:
YMCA pudukai collects Rs. 5.60 lakhs in donations to purchase an Ambulance and keeps it as a Special/ earmarked fund for the same purpose.
The National Council of the YMCA released an additional Rs. 3 lakhs to purchase the Ambulance.
Total Special Fund is Rs. 8,50,000
How to treat the additional fund received from YMCA National Council in our books -
Should we add the fund to the Specific fund kept for purchasing the Ambulance? -
YMCA pudukai spends Rs. 8,67,500 to purchase the Ambulance and registered the same in its name.
Can we debit the depreciation for the year to the PandL for the year ?
OR we should debit the Specific fund for the Depreciation every year & Credit the same to Ambulance(Fixed Assets) and not to charge the same to PandL
Kindly advise
