Albert EINSTEIN - Interesting Fact

No human being has ever been so readily identified with the notion of pure genius as Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)
 
When Einstein was five years old his father gave him a pocket compass. It was this compass that sparked Einstein’s interest in science. The fact that the compass pointed in the same direction no matter how it was turned made him curious about understanding the force behind it.

In 1895 when Albert Einstein appeared for the University Entrance Exam he could only manage to pass in the math and science sections and failed in the rest of the subjects. 
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Einstein, who was never able to recall his own phone number, was famous for not memorizing anything that could be quickly and easily looked up in a standard reference volume. "Never memorize what you can look up in books," he said
 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
Einstein was good friends with the film star Charlie Chaplin. Of the crowds that followed them, separately and when they attended events together, Chaplin told Einstein, "People cheer me because they all understand me, and they cheer you because nobody understands you."


Albert Einstein won the Nobel Prize for his work in the area of Photoelectric Effect in the year 1921. Einstein was not present to receive his Nobel Prize in December 1922 because he was on a trip to Japan.

Einstein was offered the Presidency of Israel in 1952 but declined it. An element named einsteinium was discovered in 1952 and named in his honor.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Albert Einstein was also not particularly concerned about being well dressed. He also stopped wearing socks because he found his big toe would make a hole in the sock. His favorite past time was sailing. Einstein also loved going for walks around the town and that was one of his favorite activities. He also loved music and used to play the violin.

When Albert Einstein died, his final words died with him. The nurse at his side didn't understand German.
 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
After Albert Einstein’s death in 1955 his brain was removed without approval from his family and an autopsy was conducted. Thomas Harvey conducted this autopsy and eventually it was discovered that Einstein’s brain had large portion of glial cells in the region that synthesizes information. Other studies also indicated that Einstein’s brain did not have a particular kind of wrinkle and this allowed the neurons to communicate better with each other.

Working Father’s


Have mostly heard about working Mother’s, the way they are dedicated towards their family and work and how they balance their personal and professional life.

But feel that even working father’s are playing the similar role.


From my past memories, I have mostly seen my father working hard for our family and for our better future and settled life. In these course of time working father’s do devote their time for their family and children.


Taking us for different rides in various Amusement parks to ridding on their back too.

Helping children’s in their academic to frivolous activities till helping their partner in household activities and many more…...


I simply feel every father in this world loves their family very much and they play no less important for their family

20 Powerful Beliefs That Will Push You Toward Success - by Dumb Little Man

Preliminary Expenses - An Analysis - Mayur Mundra

An Analysis on Preliminary Expenses :

These are incurred for the incorporation of a company. They may be paid by the promoters before the company is incorporated or by the company after it is incorporated. And they include the following:

a) professional charges paid for drafting of memorandum of association
and articles of association;

b) professional charges for consultation in incorporating the company;

c) cost of printing of the initial copies of MoA and AoA;

d) stamp duty for the documents;

e) registration fee paid to the Registrar of Companies (RoC) for
incorporation; f) bank charges incurred on the above; and

g) incidental expenses such as stationary, conveyance, and so on.

Preliminary expenses are those incurred in connection with the incorporation of the company. Shares are issued after the company is incorporated. Share issue expenses are not a part of preliminary expenses. Therefore, it is a wrong to disclose share issue expense as part of preliminary expenses. No accounting entry would be permissible under this head once the company is incorporated.


These are to be recorded under a separate head of account. Section 78 of the Companies Act, dealing with utilisation of securities premium, states defraying of preliminary expense under a clause different from the clause defraying expenditure incurred on issue of shares and/or debentures. It also indicates that share issue expenses are different from preliminary expenses.

Recognising preliminary expenses: Since the expenditure is incurred and paid by the promoters even before the company is incorporated, there is normally a clause that the promoters are reimbursed of all the expenditure. It would not be proper to treat these expenses as accrued as on the date of incorporation of the company and to show them as outstanding expenditure. There cannot be any transactions entered into by the company before it is incorporated.

Accounting treatment of preliminary expenses: Preliminary expenses are capitalised and amortised over a reasonable period of time. Format of balance-sheet of a company provides for disclosure of un-amortised preliminary expenses under the head "Miscellaneous items".

Accounting Standard on preliminary expenses: AS 26 dealing with intangible assets covers preliminary expenses as well. The period over which these preliminary expenses are to be amortised is best left to the judgment of the directors of the company. AS 26 suggests writing off intangible assets over a period of 10 years, though a different period is permissible if it is justified in the opinion of the management. It is a common practice to write off these preliminary expenses in a period of five years, though there is no legal provision to this effect. A company can as well write off its preliminary expenses in the same year as it incurs.

Audit of preliminary expenses: Audit of a company in the first year of its incorporation involves audit of preliminary expenses. Over the next few years, the only matter to be concerned with is write off of
preliminary expenses. At the planning stage, the auditor should
enquire of the company about the details of preliminary expenses. Reference to the minutes of the first meeting of board of directors
indicates the quantum of preliminary expenses and the period over
which it is proposed to be written off. The auditor would do well to retain a copy of the minutes for his documentation.
It is common practice that the chartered accountant associated with
the incorporation of a company is appointed as first auditor of the company; this is not essential, though. Incorporation of a company can as well be made with the help of other professionals such as company secretaries, advocates, and so on. During the course of audit, the auditor should vouch the expenditure with reference to the bills and vouchers of expenditure. There would be certain expenses, such as stamp duty affixed on the memorandum and articles of association, which is filed with the Registrar for incorporation. Therefore, the audit evidence in support of stamp duty paid is less conclusive. Under these circumstances, the auditor can verify the receipt issued by the Registrar of Stamps for
stamps issued by him. Additionally, he may require the company to
produce a photocopy of the memorandum and articles of association, duly attested by a director of the company.
Audit of preliminary expenses is a peculiar situation since these are
incurred even before the company is incorporated. The auditor should read the memorandum and articles of Association to see if the clause of reimbursing the preliminary expenditure is contained therein. Possibly, preliminary expenditure could have been incurred by more than one person. Each one of the promoters who incurs the expenditure in connection with the incorporation of the company has to produce a statement of expenditure to seek reimbursement. Such a statement should be supported by the details of expenditure and the relevant bills and receipts. The minutes of the board of directors would be helpful to quantify the expenditure. The board should adopt the preliminary expenditure and also decide the period over which it has to be written off.

Another area of concern to the auditor would be the mode of reimbursement of preliminary expenditure. It can be by way of reimbursement in cash or allotment of shares. If shares are allotted through reimbursement of preliminary expenditure, it amounts to allotment of shares in consideration other than cash, and the disclosure norms as per Schedule VI would apply.
Section 227(1A) requires an auditor to satisfy that transactions
represented merely by way of book entries are not prejudicial to the interests of the company and its shareholders. Write-off of
preliminary expenditure being one such, the auditor should use his
diligence to satisfy himself about both the quantum of preliminary expenditure as well as the period over which it is to be written off.
Auditor and preliminary expenses: When the chartered accountant
engaged by the company for its incorporation is also the first auditor, the auditor should be cautious about the restrictions of
Section 226(3). He would be disqualified to be the auditor of the
company if he accepts shares in consideration of his professional services.

Audit and Assurance Standard 26, on letters of engagement, suggests separate letters of engagement for separate assignments. Therefore, the auditor should issue separate letters of engagements for incorporation of the company and or its audit. After all, his engagement for incorporation is by the promoters and his appointment as an auditor is by the company.
Preliminary expenses under the Income-Tax Act: The I-T Act provides
for amortisation of preliminary expenses. Section 35 D specifies the expenditure to be included in preliminary expenditure, which under the I-T Act is allowable for all types of assesses. Conceptually, this is different from preliminary expenses under company law.


Allowability of share issue expenses under the I-T Act: Share issue
expenses are not normally allowable as business expenditure. The only possibility of claiming share issue expenses under the I-T Act is provided in Section 35 D. Preliminary expenses under this section covers expenditure incurred for raising funds for the project. As a result, if shares are issued to fund the project, such expenditure can be included under preliminary expenses and claimed for amortisation
under Section 35 D.
