provision for the salary relating to Jan12-Mar12 was required to be made in teh books in teh month mar12. However if teh same was not being made then it needs to be shown as an prior period expenditure.

This might get allowed in the asst for F.Y. Apr12-Mar13 provided that satisfactory explanation is being given to teh AO.

Regards the accounting perspective, the provisions laid down in AS4 Net profit or loss for teh period, prior period items shud be followed & the amount shud be shown distinctively in teh P&L if it has an impact on the current year's P&L. necessary disclosures shud be also made in the Notes to Accounts.
