Insurance Receipt
Permalink Closed


I'm sure it's treated as disposal/sale of an asset, with insurance money paid against disposal, could leave you with a loss or gain on disposal.

Did you sort out your loan account thingy Steve? It's probably very simple but it's been doing my head in.

 

Edited because i don't know what i'm talking about.

I'm seriously going to have to take time out next year and revisit all i have studied, my brain seems to have turned to mush.

Why i try answering question son here i don't know. I read back my replies and think 'WTF'

We have a trailer that isn't showing as an asset that we hire out. The only place it would of appeared in the accounts will be as a purchase. This trailer got hit whilst on hire and written off. Where would I post the amount we received off the insurance for this?

After milling through the internets would I be right in thinking it should oppose the original expense so a credit to the trailer purchases nominal?

 It never went in as an asset, it should have in my mind but never did, I know what you mean with the disposals and such but it's just not been put like that to start with, so I have as usual bodged it and left a note for the accountant biggrin.

The loan dealy is something I have left, again, I have however marked who the purchases are for and will leave a note for the accountant, he can then do the necessary.

Sounds like a plan.

I don't mind posting on your questions as i know you have the good sense to ignore me lol.

If the trailer isn't showing as an asset, where has it been recorded? Just out of interest.

 As a purchase, we sell trailers, so what they do is put one from stock out for hire, sell it as second hand then get another from stock.
