प्रश्न
All membership fees collected by a non-trading concern must be entered in the assets side of the balance sheet. Justify for or against.
उत्तर
Against:
- All membership fees collected by a non-trading concern should not be entered on the asset side of the balance sheet.
- Membership fees are typically considered revenue and should be recorded in the Income and Expenditure Account.
- Only if the membership fees are received in advance for future periods should they be treated as a liability and shown on the liabilities side of the balance sheet as "Membership Fees Received in Advance." Regular membership fees for the current period are not assets; they are income.
