Precautions while Preparing Realisation Account
(a) If question is silent about realised value of Tangible Assets, it should be
considered to be realised at book value itself.
(b) If question is silent about realised value of Intangible Assets, accrued income
and prepaid expenses, it should be considered as nil (zero value)
• Tangible Assets are the assets which have physical existence, i.e., assets
which can be seen and touched. Examples: Land, Building, Furniture, Computers, etc.
Investments are also tangible asset as they have physical existence.
Investment may be in land, building and shares in companies etc.
• Intangible Assets are the assets which do not have physical existence, i.e., assets which
cannot be seen and touched. Examples: Software, Trade Mark, Goodwill, Patents, Copy
Rights etc. These assets including accrued income and prepaid expenses are not shown
as realised unless realised value of such assets is not given.
• Investment fluctuation fund, Provisions for doubtful debts, Provision or reserve for
depreciation are not liabilities. These are not liabilities. Then these are not paid as
liabilities. Other liabilities are paid at their book values if there is no information given.
• If partners have taken over any Liability and Asset for full settlement then it is not
needed to be recorded.
