Hi,

 

I am stuck and unable to account for the following. Any help or assistance would really be appreciated!

 

we have a holding company and  and operating company. The operating company has paid 10K on behalf of a repair expense which should be paid by the holding company & capitalized over 3 years.

The 17 partners will be paying the capitalized amount over the next 3 years to the operating company to cover the repair expense.

 

Can anyone help me with the Journal entries needed for both the holding and operating companies for the scenario?

Hi Hina,

 

Your entries will be:

 

Operating company:

DR Receivable from Holding company 10,000

  CR Bank 10,000

 

Holding company:

DR Asset account 10,000

  CR Payable to Operating company 10,000

 

Please use appropriate sales tax codes when creating journal entries.

 

Thanks

Prachi
