Quick Summary
This discussion explores the accounting treatment for significant stock of stationery and consumables within a company. It questions whether such items, when not held for resale but for office use, should be recorded as assets and, if so, under which category. The general consensus leans towards expensing these items as they are used, meaning they don't typically carry forward to the next financial year.

 

I think if you are using it for office use then you booked it as an expense & once you booked it as an expense it will not carry forward for next year .

What if the stock of stationery is of huge value?

 

Till date I really have never heard that it can be fix the life of books or registers or pen pencils either if it is not your business
