Thank u sir one more ques..claim was lodged for full amount before balance sheet date but only part of compensation is received then what will be accounting treatment..
Book the amount receivable to the tune of actual amount received. - It is Conservation. Provide for all possible losses.
Conservatism * correction in previous msg.
