it is current account fluctuation which shall be directly adjusted to p/l so there shall be no need tocalculate it separately

gain of Rs.3,411.35.

 

(61.65-59.90 * 1889) and (60-59.9*1056)

im sorry i made a calculation mistake in my previous post...

Sale value  2989*59.9 =1,79,041

Advance received 1056*60 =63,360

Second receipt 1889*61.65 = 1,16,457

Balance receivable 44*61.65 = 2,713
( Assumed 61.65 as closing rate)

Net gain= 63,360+1,16,457+2,713 -1,79,041 =3,489

The gain changes to the extent of forex changes as on closing date because of the balance receivable.
