Loan accounting

250 views 3 replies
hi all, a company i know borrowed some money from nbfi based on the AR but not exactly factoring. just as a security. the interest is simple interest. interest and principal is same over a period of 2yrs. The lender wants the company to show the total liability including interest in our books.

Its a challenge as u all know interest we will charge to p&l on monthly basis and principal goes to BS as liability.

Do any of you find a way to show full liability?

I think, it is same. Just club the interest liability to the loan amount at year end.

When you didn’t pay the interest

Interest expense a/c—> recognised annually

To Accumulated Interest a/c—> accumulated on balance sheet under current liabilities

If interest is paying monthly , then it is to be recognised as an expense and should be shown in profit and loss account , Can not club with loan account .
Interest is an current expense , Loan is future liability .
