the entries in the books of accounts?

Answer Posted / samir ladhani

Let me try..

When we book loss & put claim to insurance company,

Insurance claim receivable a/c. Dr 5000
to stock. 5000

when claim is received....

Bank a/c Dr 4000
Loss by fire a/c Dr 1000
to insurance claim receivable
5000

If u observe, net effect will be,

Bank a/c Dr. 4000
Loss by fire a/c Dr. 1000
to stock. 5000
