Based on following, answer the question.

Mr. A, Mr. B and Mrs. C are friends, graduated from JIM Calcutta with specialisation in finance. They started a financing business as a partnership firm. In a written Partnership Deed they specify that the profit sharing ratio amongst them would be 3 : 2 : 1 and interest on capital would be provided @ 5% p.a. However no specifications were made in partnership deed about the interest on drawings and loans. The capitals contributed by them were ₹3,00,000, ₹2,00,000 and ₹1,00,000 by A, B and C respectively. During the year Mrs. C withdrew ₹20,000 to meet her family expenses. Looking at insufficient capital Mr. B introduced another ₹1,00,000 as capital into the firm on 1st June 2021. The business was expanding and for the same purpose the firm took a loan from Mr. A of ₹3,00,000 on 1st October 2021. During the year ended 31 March, 2022 firm earned a profit of ₹4,00,000 before charging rent of ₹20,000 p.a. Looking at the competency of Mr. D being a C.A. Mr. B wanted to introduce him in the partnership firm as a partner. The firm started its operation on 1st April 2021.

The firm took a loan from Mr. A of ₹3,00,000 on 1st October. How much interest he should be provided for?

Answer & explanation+

Correct answer: option 4

The correct answer is Option (4) → ₹9,000

The deed is silent on interest on loans, so the Partnership Act applies: a partner who advances a loan to the firm gets interest at 6% per annum.

Loan period = 1st October 2021 to 31st March 2022 = 6 months

Interest = ₹3,00,000 × 6/100 × 6/12 = ₹9,000
