Wealth
Statement

Preparation of Wealth Statement


1. Identify Assets and Liabilities: The wealth statement is essentially a
balance sheet of an individual, which includes personal assets and
liabilities on a given date. It does not reflect business assets and liabilities
but shows the net equity of the business. Assets and liabilities include
cash, bank balances, investments, properties, loans, etc.
2. Prepare Cash and Bank Reconciliation Statement: Start from the
opening balance of cash & bank and after adding cash inflows and
subtracting cash outflows, the remaining amount is the closing balances
of cash & bank account. This closing balance is included in the assets of
the wealth statement. If the expenditure side is not explained through
the cash receipt side, then the difference is unexplained investment and
is taxable.

3. Calculate Net Wealth: After taking the cash & bank reconciliation
figure, the wealth statement for the current year is complete. A person
can easily calculate the figure of increase/decrease in the net wealth by
subtracting the last year's net wealth figure from the current year's net
wealth figure.

4. Prepare Wealth Reconciliation Statement: This statement shows


the opening wealth, adds inflows (like salary income, gain on sale of
shares, profit on business, etc.), subtracts outflows (like tax paid,
household expenses, gifts, etc.), and finally gives the total wealth at the
end of the period.

Preparation of Wealth Statement


5. Record at Historical Cost: Assets and liabilities are recorded at
historical cost and not at market value.

6. Revise if Necessary: If a person discovers any omission or wrong


statement in the wealth statement, they can revise it by intimation to the
Commissioner. The revision can be made before the receipt of notice for
amendment in assessment. A revised wealth reconciliation and reasons
for revision will also be filed.

7. Furnish the Statement: The wealth statement should be furnished by


the due date specified in the notice.

Calculation of capital in ABC & Co.


1. Start with the initial capital in ABC & Co, which is Rs. 2,500,000
2. Add the profit earned from ABC & Co during the year, which is Rs. 450,000
3. Subtract the drawings from the firm during the year, which is Rs. 275,000

Capital in ABC & Co = Initial Capital + Profit - Drawings


= Rs. 2,500,000 + Rs. 450,000 - Rs. 275,000
= Rs. 2,675,000

calculation of closing cash and bank balance.

1. Start with the opening cash and bank balance, which is Rs. 1,500,000 (cash) + Rs.
2,000,000 (bank) = Rs. 3,500,000.
2. Add the inflows during the year, which include salary income of Rs. 1,200,000, gain on
sale of shares (Rs. 350,000 - Rs. 200,000 = Rs. 150,000), and drawings from the firm
ABC & Co of Rs. 275,000.
3. Subtract the outflows during the year, which include tax paid on salary of Rs. 100,000,
household expenses of Rs. 850,000, gift to brother of Rs. 400,000, tax on profit of ABC
& Co of Rs. 40,000, and installments paid for the new plot of Rs. 700,000.

So, the calculation would be:

Cash and Bank = Opening Cash and Bank + Inflows - Outflows


= Rs. 3,500,000 + Rs. 1,200,000 + Rs. 150,000 + Rs. 275,000 - Rs. 100,000 - Rs. 850,000 -
Rs. 400,000 - Rs. 40,000 - Rs. 700,000
= Rs. 2,735,000

Calculation of closing cash and bank balance.


Closing Cash and Bank = Opening Cash and Bank + Inflows - Outflows
Start with the opening cash and bank balance, which is Rs. 1,500,000 (cash) + Rs.
2,000,000 (bank) = Rs. 3,500,000.
Add the inflows during the year, which include salary income of Rs. 1,200,000, sale of
shares Rs. 350,000 , and drawings from the firm ABC & Co of Rs. 275,000.

loan Rs. 500,000

Closing Cash and Bank = Opening Cash and Bank + Inflows - Outflows
= 3,500,000 + 1,200,000 + 350,000 + 275,000 - 100,000 - 850,000 - 400,000 - 40,000
- 700,000 – 500,000
= Rs. 2,735,000

The wealth reconciliation statement is a document that shows how an


individual's wealth has changed over a specific period. It includes the
opening wealth, adds an increase in wealth, subtracts a decrease in
wealth, and finally gives the total wealth at the end of the period.
Opening Wealth: Start with the opening wealth. In Mr. Nadeem's case, the opening wealth was
Rs. 10,000,000.
Add Increase in wealth (Assets)
▪ Salary income of Rs. 1,200,000
▪ Gain on sale of shares (Rs. 350,000 - Rs. 200,000 = Rs. 150,000)
▪ Profit on ABC & Co of Rs. 450,000
Subtract Decrease in wealth (Assets)
▪ Tax paid on salary of Rs. 100,000
▪ Household expenses of Rs. 850,000
▪ Gift to brother of Rs. 400,000
▪ Tax on profit of ABC & Co of Rs. 40,000
Calculate Total Wealth: The total wealth at the end of the period is the opening wealth plus
increase in assets minus decrease in assets. In Mr. Nadeem's case, this was Rs. 10,410,000.

The repayment of a loan is not typically included in a wealth reconciliation statement


because it is a transfer between two types of assets: cash and liabilities. When you repay a
loan, you decrease your cash assets and also decrease your liabilities (the loan). The net
effect on your total wealth is zero.
In the context of Mr. Nadeem's wealth reconciliation statement, the repayment of the
personal loan is not included because it does not affect his net wealth. The cash used to
repay the loan decreases his cash assets, but it also decreases his liabilities by the same
amount. Therefore, the net effect on his total wealth is zero.
However, the outstanding loan amount at the end of the year would be considered in the
calculation of Mr. Nadeem's total wealth, as it is a liability that reduces his net wealth. The
wealth statement would show a decrease in liabilities (due to loan repayment), which would
increase his net wealth.
Remember, a wealth statement is a snapshot of an individual's assets and liabilities at a
specific point in time, while a wealth reconciliation statement shows how the individual's
wealth has changed over a specific period. The repayment of a loan affects the individual's
wealth statement (by reducing liabilities) but does not affect the wealth reconciliation
statement (as it does not change the net wealth). 13
