On 1st October 2020, Aman advanced ₹1,00,000 for Loan to the firm and on the same date, the firm advanced loan ₹50,000 to Raghav. Both the loans were without any agreement. Interest on Capital is to be allowed @ 5%p.a. as a charge. Manager's Commission ₹20,000 was not yet allowed. Loss for the year before allowing and charging interest on loans was ₹50,000.

What will be the loss after providing interest on capital to both partners?

₹90,000

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. ₹90,000

Aman's Capital = ₹5,00,000
Interest rate = 5% p.a.
I.O.C = 5,00,000 X 5/100
         = 25,000

Raghav's Capital = 3,00,000
Interest rate = 5% p.a.
I.O.C = 3,00,000 X 5/100
         = 15,000

TOTAL INTEREST = 25,000 + 15,000
                          = ₹40,000

Loss of the year before this = 50,000
Total loss after this = 50,000 + 40,000
                               = ₹90,000
