In First Case there is no insurance coverage hence we have to bear the entire loss
case 2 Partly Insurance Coverage

The Part Value(if percent (%) available according to that it will cover) of Fire accident to be treated as loss. Stock in Qty to be adjusted

Inventory Value Become 75 now - only these amount will reflect as closing stock in trading a/c and balance sheet
In the second case only part of the amount covered by the insurance company. Hence we have to bear 1/2 portion loss.
case 3 Fully Insurance Coverage
Inventory value(Fire accident Fully insured) portion not to be adjusted with Total Inventory value due to the full portion of the insured inventory will be refunded by the insurance co. so there is no monetary loss but any way stock in qty to be adjusted 100 - 25 = 75
(For eg. Total Inventory Value Rs.100 (Fire Accident Rs.25))
Insurance Coverage Rs.25
Loss on Fire Accident a/c dr 25.00
