Some errors which affect one side of account or more than one account in such a way that it is not possible to pass a complete rectification entry.
These can be corrected by making rectification statement in the appropriate side of concerned account.
![Page 16: Fundamentals of accounts - ICAI Knowledge Gateway · After TB but before final accounts After final accounts – in the next year](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102920/5afa073b7f8b9a44658e8a3e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Purchase book for December is under cast by Rs. 10,000.

Only purchase a/c is to be corrected.
Purchase account debit side :
“To under casting of purchases for December”by Rs. 10,000
![Page 17: Fundamentals of accounts - ICAI Knowledge Gateway · After TB but before final accounts After final accounts – in the next year](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102920/5afa073b7f8b9a44658e8a3e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Rs 10,000 received from Mr. David has been entered
on Dr side of his account.
Implications:

Wrong debit in Mr. David a/c Rs. 10,000 is to be removed and also credit is to be given Rs. 10,000.
Total difference would be of Rs. 20,000
Credit side : By posting on wrong side ………..
![Page 18: Fundamentals of accounts - ICAI Knowledge Gateway · After TB but before final accounts After final accounts – in the next year](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102920/5afa073b7f8b9a44658e8a3e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

So far we have discussed where rectifying entries were not complete journal entries . In fact rectifying entry is made directly in the account concerned.
Now we will take up correction which affect more than one account in such a way that complete journal entry is possible for rectification.
![Page 25: Fundamentals of accounts - ICAI Knowledge Gateway · After TB but before final accounts After final accounts – in the next year](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102920/5afa073b7f8b9a44658e8a3e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
First right entry – what ought to be or should
have been passed .
Wrong entry – what has been passed .
Now compare the two and pass rectification entry.
Testing – Combined effect of wrong entry passed
earlier and rectification entry passed later will be
equal to the right entry .

If originallyTB not agreed, it might have been artificially tallied by
incorporating suspense account at the side where total was lower.
While passing rectification entry, suspense a/c to be considered.
First right entry – what ought to be or should have been passed.
Wrong entry – what has been done.
Now compare the two and pass rectification entry.
Testing – Net effect of earlier wrong entry and later on rectification
entry will be equal to right entry what should have been passed.

Rectification entry Purchase Dr 1,000 To Suspense 1,000
After TB but before Final Accounts – difference in Suspense Account
Purchase a/c was less totalled by 1,000 whereas individual debtors were correctly posted. Debit side of TB would have been less by 1,000. Since we have already prepared our TB ,it means this difference would have been taken at the debit side of suspense account .
![Page 36: Fundamentals of accounts - ICAI Knowledge Gateway · After TB but before final accounts After final accounts – in the next year](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102920/5afa073b7f8b9a44658e8a3e/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Prior period items are income or expenses
which arise in current period as a result of
errors or omissions in previous years.
These should be separately disclosed in current
statement of P&L together with their nature
and amount in a manner that their impact on
current profit /loss can be perceived.
![Page 46: Fundamentals of accounts - ICAI Knowledge Gateway · After TB but before final accounts After final accounts – in the next year](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102920/5afa073b7f8b9a44658e8a3e/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Since effects of Nominal accounts must have
been considered in either Trading or P&L
account and net result of P&L might have been
transferred in Capital account in last year.
Hence net balance of P&L Adjustment or
Prior Period Items will be transferred to
Capital account , not in current years P&L.
![Page 47: Fundamentals of accounts - ICAI Knowledge Gateway · After TB but before final accounts After final accounts – in the next year](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102920/5afa073b7f8b9a44658e8a3e/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Just to be rectified like earlier method. All nominal accounts or accounts closed by transferring to either Trading or P & L a/c –
instead of particular head – to be debited / credited to P&L Adjustment or Prior Period Items . It may also be transferred to Capital a/c directly
with a suitable disclosure. Net result would be the same.
