Because the members have paid the money for the next year or whatsoever, so it's like a liability to the club owners since it's like you owe the members a service, which they have not yet realized. They come under Current Liabilities in the Balance Sheet.
When you draw up a subscriptions account, any subscriptions paid in advance are carried down as a credit balance to the following period.

Hope you get it :)
Yes I know it is a current liability
I meant why not add there :D :D
You explained about the subscription account..
In income statement, the subscriptions prepaid at the end of the year are subtracted from subscriptions paid during the year (In expenses) , right?, So I guess when calculating correct net surplus, it should be subtracted.. I mean we subtract expenses from Gross profit, so (-)expenses (-)prepaid = (+) to Gross profit, so in the reverse(Calculating corrected net surplus) we add :) Is that right?
Thanks :) :)
Sorry I am having a struggle when it comes to accounting, I get confused for merely no reason.. :D

In the income statement, the subscriptions are only listed under income, and the amount under it is derived from opening a subscription account.

You are just confusing yourself. :)
The difference (the equaling factor) between both the debit and credit side of a subscription account goes to the income statement.
While the Subscriptions received in advance come under current liabilities, and subscriptions owing come under the current assets.

Did you still not get it?

If you have been working so hard then in shaa Allah it will be good for you :)
The problem with me is I am taking IGCSE accounting along with 3 AS subjects, so Time was short.. I gave more time to AS subjects and accounting took a back seat :D .. I know I didn't work that hard in it :D :D :D
