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.

Dr interest on loan 15000
Dr Loan account 60000
Cr Bank account 75000
(being EMI paid)

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. 

I didn’t mean emi, lol an old habit. I meant repayment period
