A, B and C are partners in a partnership firm sharing profits and loss in ratio of 2:2:1. Their fixed capitals are ₹1,00,000, ₹80,000 and ₹70,000 respectively. In a year, interest on capital was credited to them @ 9% p.a. instead of 12 % p.a. What will be the adjustment entry? |
B's Current A/c Dr. ₹600 C's Current A/c Dr. ₹600 B's Capital A/c Dr. ₹600 B's Current A/c Dr. ₹800 |
B's Current A/c Dr. ₹600 |
The correct answer is option 1-
A will get credit of ₹3,000 as interest on capital This total interest is loss for the firm so it is divided into partners in their profit sharing ratio i.e. 2:2:1. A will be debited ₹3,000 for loss So net effect is B will be debited with ₹600 and C will be credited with ₹600. |
