While preliminary expeses essentially associate with activities involved in the formation of the company, pre-operative expenses are those which are connected with actions that are required for start up of operations. Pre-operative expendiure can therefore be capitalised by apportionment/allocation to assets which are the subject matter of operation. Preliminary expenditure are written off as revenue and set off when the company generates profits. For more details please look into AS-26.
