But how director will show this transaction in his book? Should UI credit Director's account and debit rent A/c?

1. Payable entry

   Rent A/c ........dr

        To rent payable

2. Payment entry

   Rent Payable    dr

         to Cash/bank

Also check TDS provisions for directors and also mention it in tax audit schedule

Journal entry for rent due is :

 Rent a/c Dr

      To Rent payable a/c

Journal entry for rent paid is:

               To bank a/c

 

The initial journal entry for prepaid rent is a debit to prepaid rent and a credit to cash. These are both asset accounts and do not increase or decrease a company's balance sheet.

What would be the journal entries for trading in futures and options?
