Hi,
The accounting treatment would be(As per income tax act)
Cash/Bank A/c.........Dr 27,000
To Fixed Asset 11,000
To STCG 16,000
The tax treatment would be to show 16,000 as STCG and not to take any depreciation on the sold asset for the current year...........
If there are other assets in that block, what should be the accounting treatment for the same?
If there are other assets in the block there may be two situation
1.the wdv of the entire block is less than 27,000(sale value received )
eg:-wdv is 24,000
cash/bank a/c ........Dr. 27,000
To Fixed/ asset a/c. 24,000
To STCG a/c. 3,000
2.the wdv is more than the sale value
eg:-wdv is 30,000
cash/bank a/c.......Dr 27,000
To Fixed assets. 27,000
that means there would no STCG In 2nd situation
