Absorption refers to the process by which a company fully
takes over another company and carries on the existing
business of his with additional resources of the company
taken over.. while amalgamation means two companies coming
together to form a new entity and carry on the businees.
realisation account is prepared just to make a statement
showing the distribution of the companies assets that are
realised among shareholders, creditors and others before
the company is fully closed.
