Answer / ramesh rajani
Preliminary expenses are the expense mhich are paid in the
processing of company formulation. in other world they are
paid for bringing the company into existance.
As these expenses
1)are huge in amount,
2)are nonrecurring and
3)are not related with the day-today opretions
therefore it is not fair to treat it as revenue
expenditure.The total amount paid for such expenses are
first capitalised and shown in the balance sheet.thereafter
from this some portion is written off each year.
