Thank you for sharing these!! Just wanted to know whether the number of months u take in calculations is correct? Like I think you take 1 month extra while calculating these . For example in 18th sum ,while calculating interest in executor account, you took 9 months. Whereas from 1 August to 31 March there should be 8 months. Then there are few miscalculations like these.
Yes, it is 8 months, corrected, plz inform me if you find other calculation mistakes.
