1.) I am preparing accounts of proprietary firm . There is capital shown as Rs 50,000
and first year loss is more than capital . Then how should I transfer net loss to his capital accounts.
2.) If preliminary expenses show in balance sheet then loss reduced but more than capital Rs 5000
Is it necessary to show preliminary expenses
