Flight cancellation charges accountability

Others 4599 views 10 replies

In every Financial Year, we have several instances when partner's or employee's Flight Tickets are booked, but cancelled sometimes due to circumstances, so if flight ticket is Rs.5000, and we get refund of Rs.3750 and Rs.1250 is deducted by Airline as Cancellation Fee.

Please advise this Cancellation should be accounted as losses or under some other head?

Which account head should be created in Tally to account Cancellation Charges?

Please guide.

Thank you.

Depending upon the nature of reason for cancellation, head of account can be debited.

If it is business decision, debit to Travel Exps Account.

If it is due to personal problem of someone, it can be debited to that person.

this is propriters firm.. and payment made by owner by personal credit card.. what will be entry??
 

If the expenses are related to the business then that will be a part of business Expenses. If the owner paid any amount like this through his Debit / Credit Card, that amount should be refunded/ credited:  

Travelling Expenses A/c Dr

        To Cash / Bank OR Owner's personal Account (or) capital Account

In case there are so many charges paid on the cancellation you can create a seperate sub ledger account with named "Ticket Cancellation".

If your are paying credit card payment you should debit personal a/c or Capital account of Owner from all the amount your paid against his personal expenses and debit all the expenses made for business. 

Owner's Personal A/c (or) Capital A/c (from Personal Expenses paid) Dr

Expenses A/c Dr

To Cash / Bank
