Hello,
Can you pleas ehelp to understand:
how do we account for a loan given to subsidiary ( which was/was not included to the investement account)? which adjustments should be made ( do we need to cancel it? any workings for interest)???
thank you in advance!Natalija
November 28, 2010 at 6:42 am #71833Yes, need to cancel the receivable and the payable.
As for interest, need possibly to accrue ( for interest accrued not yet paid – or equally for interest due, not yet recognised by the lender.)
In addition, there could be a payment of interest and / or capital in transit from borrower to lender at the year end. In that case, we’ll need to accelerate the in transit into the records of the lender, and then cancel
November 28, 2010 at 6:44 am #71834sorry, should have also said that the interest expense in the borrower should be deducted from the finance charges of the borrower and the interest received / receivable should be eliminated from the finance income in the lender’s I/S
