Legacy refers to property received by virtue of a will of a person after his death. Acquisition of such property by an institution is regarded as capital receipt. Hence it will not appear in Income & Expenditure Account. Properties or cash received on account of Legacy is shown on asset side on-the balance sheet on one hand and on the other hand it is added to the capital fund account on the liabilities side of the balance sheet.
