I am kind of confused on this point. August 2, 2019 at 7:50 pm #526038 John MoffatKeymasterTopics: 57Replies: 54480☆☆☆☆☆A prepayment is when you have paid this year for an expense of next year. You have paid too much and so the amount overpaid is an asset.Have you watched my free lectures? The lectures are a complete free course for Paper FA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.AuthorPostsViewing 2 posts - 1 through 2 (of 2 total)You must be logged in to reply to this topic.Log In Username: Password: Keep me signed in Log In
