Old bank account to be introduced in financials

A/c entries 241 views 5 replies

1 bank account was not shown in the Balance sheet of a proprietary firm for last 5 years. This year however, bank has deducted TDS on interest received on the bank account thereby reflecting the bank account in 26AS. How do we introduce this bank account in the financials? What would be the journal entries for the same?

Hi Vinita, Thanks for the reply

AS 5 requires recording Prior period items in Profit and loss account. However, in the query listed above, we have to introduce the bank account as an asset in Balance Sheet.

If the bank has balance and interest is earned you will need to account that too
