Correct Answer: Revenue loss, profit and loss, fixed assets


Solution : Answer = Revenue loss, profit and loss, fixed assets

"Discount on issue" is a revenue loss and will be amortized during the lifetime of the debentures. However, until then, it will be shown as "Fixed Assets" on the Assets side of the Balance Sheet. This treatment ensures proper accounting for the discount while reflecting its impact on the company's financial position.
Hence, the correct option is 3.
