normal loss: we dont show it in financial statemaents...it is due to nature of material.. which cannat be avoidable.. for example if u purchase 1000 ltrs of oil for 10000 rupees... and due to leakage 100 litrs were loss... then u have disclose it as oil purchased 9000 ltrs for 10000 rupees...

abnormal loss: it is avoidable and due to abnormal reasons like accident in factory, fire in factory, goods theft ... we have to shoe them in financial statements..

show total loss in trading A/c credit side... and if is covered by any insurance then unrecoverable loss we hav to show in profir and loss Ac...
