In Profit and Loss Account :-  Preliminary Expenditure written off during the year should be shown in notes  Under  â??Other Expensesâ??. In Revised Balance Sheet :-  In Revised Balance Sheet it should be shown as â??Other Assetsâ?? and its amount should be shown in non current Assets column.


Preliminary expenses are not shown in balance sheet. They are written off.
