why we transfer wages and salary in trading a/c,and why we
transfer salary and wages in p/l a/c?
Answer Posted / ameet narayankhedkar
Balance in Trading a/c:
The "Trading a/c" is a nominal account. It is closed at the
end of the accounting period by transferring its balance
(Gross profit/loss) to the "Profit and Loss a/c".
Thus the trading account can be placed on par with any other
nominal account.
Balance in Profit and Loss a/c:
The Profit and Loss a/c is a nominal account. It is closed
at the end of the accounting period by transferring its
balance to either the Capital a/c or the Profit and Loss
Appropriation a/c (or Retained Earnings a/c).
The "Trading a/c" and "Profit and Loss a/c" relating to a
particular accounting period are independent of similar
accounts relating to any other accounting period.
