Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the accounting treatment for loan repayments, specifically how to split the EMI amount between the loan principal and interest. It highlights that a portion of the EMI reduces the outstanding loan balance, while the remainder covers the interest accrued. The advice suggests methods for accurate allocation, especially for loans taken mid-year or when dealing with annual repayments.
This is complex. Loan, if you took it n the middle of the year’s, you can pay 6 months clear out the current liabilities and show long term liability. If it is annual emi, then
take the loan amount and divide it by last year’s annuity factor which will give you interest and principle separately.
