Which of the following is (are) an example(s) of fictitious assets? (i) Debit balance of Profit and Loss account (ii) Goodwill
Only (i)
The correct answer is option 3. The debit balance of the Profit and Loss account is a fictitious asset because it represents accumulated losses, whereas goodwill is an intangible asset, not a fictitious one. Fictitious assets are those that have no physical existence, and are typically recorded in the accounts until they are written off over time.
