Quick Summary
This discussion explains how to account for electricity bills. When a bill is received, you should debit electricity expenses and credit a payable account. Upon payment, debit the payable account and credit cash or bank. The expense is then transferred to the P&L account at month-end.

In March month:
Electricity Expenses A/c Dr..
To Electricity Payable/Electricity Co. A/c

At time of payment :
Electricity Payable/Electricity Co. A/c Dr..
To Cash/bank A/c
At the time of booking of bills :
1.open a ledger account in creditors ledger
in the name of the electricty company paying electricity..
say for example :
reliance ifrastructure
open another account electricty charges
dr. electricty charges
cr. reliance infrastructure


when paymenybis being done:

reliance infrastructure dr.
to bank...


So electrict charges isvtransfered at the end of the month to Pl account.
