I need your assistant. Plz help me.

I took this from unsolved paper of B.Com Part II Accounting.(Year 1988 Q.No. 2 - Accounting for Co. - AMALGAMATION)

--------------------------- xxx ------------------------------
Plant Asset Rs. 80,000 (DR)
Allownance for Depreciation - Plant Asset Rs. 15,000 (CR)

Plant Assets are taken over at Rs. 60,000 by new co.

My question is that what is the journal entry of liquidating Co.

Dear I duno wot methods b.com is pursuing, but to be general and applying normal accounting, this seems a normal disposal by the disposing company and a normal acquisition of capital asset by the acquiring company,

Disposing Company

Cash a/c 60,000
Loss on disposal a/c 5,000
Asset a/c 65,000

Acquiring company

Asset a/c 60,000
Cash a/c 60,000
