Trading Account.

Dividends, &c.

order or resolution and subsequently realized, including balance in bank, book debts and calls collected, property sold, &c.; and the account of disbursements should contain all payments for costs and charges, or to creditors, or contributories. Where property has been realized, the gross proceeds of sale must be entered under realizations, and the necessary payments incidental to sales must be entered as disbursements. These accounts should not contain payments into the companies liquidation account (except unclaimed dividends-- see par. 5) or payments into or out of bank, or temporary investments by the liquidator, or the proceeds of such investments when realised, which should be shown separately:-

(a) by means of the bank pass book:

(b) by a separate detailed statement of moneys invested by

the liquidator, and investments realized.

Interest allowed or charged by the bank, bank commission, &c., and profit or loss upon the realization of temporary investments, should, however, be inserted in the accounts of realizations ог disbursements, as the case may be. Each receipt and payment must be entered in the account in such a manner as sufficiently to explain its nature. The receipts and payments must severally be added up at the foot of each sheet, and the totals carried forward from one account to another without any intermediate balance, so that the gross totals shall represent the total amounts received and paid by the liquidator respectively.

(3.) When the liquidator carries on a business, a trading account must be forwarded as a distinct account, and the totals of receipts and payments on the trading account must alone be set out in the statement.

(4.) When dividends or instalments of compositions are paid to creditors, or a return of surplus assets is made to contributories, the total amount of each dividend, or instalment of composition, or return to contributories, actually paid, must be entered in the state- ment of disbursements as one sum; and the liquidator must forward separate accounts showing in lists the amount of the claim of each eredtior, and the amount of dividend or composition payable to each creditor, and of surplus assets payable to each contributory, dis- tinguishing in each list the dividends or instalments of composition and shares of surplus assets actually paid and those remaining unclaimed. Each list must be on sheets 13 inches by 8 inches.

(5.) When unclaimed dividends, instalments of compositions or returns of surplus assets are paid into the companies liquidation account, the total amount so paid in should be entered in the state- ment of disbursements as one sum.

(6.) Credit should not be taken in the statement of disbursements for any amount in respect of liquidator's remuneration unless it has been duly allowed by resolution of the Committee of Inspection or of the creditors or of the company in general meeting, or by order of court as the case may require.
