Change in Cost of Fixed Asset

PQR ltd purchased a Fixed Asset from LTR ltd for Rs 100 (say), PQR ltd paid Rs 90 and retained Rs 10 as retainings. After one year,LTR ltd waived Rs 10, hence PQR ltd credited Rs 10 to P&L Account. Is the treatment of PQR Ltd is correct?, Is it required to alter the cost of the Asset.

NO TREATMENT OF PURCHASING CO. IS NOT CORRECT SINCE WAIVER OF RETAINED AMOUNT AMOUNTS TO CAPITAL PROFIT & NOT REVENUE PROFIT . HENCE COST OF CAPITAL ASSETS SHOULD BE ADJUSTED

Rs. 10 is in the nature of discount, the value of fixed asset has to be reduced by this amount. Can not be transferred to P&L Account.

Thank u for the reply,

1)how long a company have trace of such changes

2) state the impact on deprecation

1. When the seller agreed to waive off the amount,  you can make an entry to this effect, and take confirmation from the seller in this respect.

2. In my opinion, Depreciation should be reversed proportionately with this amount.
