I am confused about the entries of both of these books.
e.g... we have paid rent in advance(as per meigs and meigs) at the time of financial statments, our entries would be this:
Rent expence(dr)................... Rs. 1000
Prepaid Rent(cr).................................Rs. 1000.
However, as per M.A ghani( in final accouts) our entries would be this:
Prepaid Rent A/c(dr)......................Rs. 1000
To Rent A/c(cr).............................Rs. 1000
Please guide in this regard. There are many other entries of the same kind.

when prepaid rent was paid last year ..entry was
Prepaid Rent ..............Rs 1000
........Cash .........................Rs 1000
This Year adjustment entry would be
Rent A/C ..................Rs 1000
.........Prepaid rent...................Rs 1000
Rent A/c is Rent expense for this year, which will go in income statement...and Prepaid rent was assets of last year, which would be Zero this year....
