Answer / manish.p
The debit balance in P&L A/c represents Loss which is shown
om the asset side of Balance Sheet as a separate line item
as per the requirements of Schedule VI of Companies
Act,1956.This is because it is a fictitious asset.However
if the company has adequate surplus then it should be set-
off against it and only the net balance of Reserves shown
on Liabilities side.

Answer / swathy
Hey teja, it comes in Liabilities side which is added to
the reserves and surplus. The logic that debit balance in
p&l a/c being netprofit, hence in assets side is wrong.
The debit balance of P&L a/c i.e., netprofit comes to
balance sheet added to the reserves.

Answer / sagnik das
DEBIT BALACE OF P/L A/C MEANS : IN P/L A/C, DEBIT SIDE IS
HEAVIER THAN CREDIT SIDE.AS-DEBIT SIDE REPRESENTS THE
EXPENSES AND CREDIT SIDE REPRESENTS THE INCOMES,THEN IN
THIS SITUATION EXPENSES IS HEAVIER THAN INCOME.AND THIS IS
ABSOLUTELY CALLED AS LOSS.
AND THIS LOSS IS POSTED IN THE ASSET SIDE OF THE BALANCE
SHEET.
(REMEMBER: PROFIT IS A LIABILITY TO BUSINESS.AS IT IS TO BE
RETURNED TO SHARE HOLDERS.IN "BUSINESS ENTITY CONCEPT" IF A
BUSINESS OWES SHARE HOLDERS FOR PROFIT AS SHARE HOLDERS ARE
TREATED AS OUTSIDE AND SEPARATE ENTITY OF BUSINESS.
IN VIS A VIS LOSS IS TREATED AS ASSET.AND IT IS SHOWN IN
THE ASSET COLUMN OF THE BALANCE SHEET.)

Answer / hemanth kumar
Hi Kirti, don't get confused, understand the question
clearly. Here P/L debit side means expenditure, since the
question clearly say's that debit side is more, that means
to say that expenditure is more. In other words it is net
loss. Hence it goes to balance sheet asset side.
