(II) Debit side of Partner's Capital Account

 

  • (A) Bank (fresh capital introduced)(IV) Credit side of Partner’s Capital Account. Because when a partner brings in additional capital, the firm’s liability towards the partner increases, hence the Capital Account is credited.

  • (B) Interest on drawings(I) Debit side of Partner’s Current Account. Interest on drawings is an expense recoverable from the partner; it reduces the partner’s share, so it is debited to the Current Account.

  • (C) Bank (permanent withdrawal of capital)(II) Debit side of Partner’s Capital Account. Permanent withdrawal reduces the partner’s capital balance, so the Capital Account is debited.

  • (D) Commission(III) Credit side of Partner’s Current Account. Commission payable to a partner increases their income; therefore, it is credited to the Current Account.
