Workman Compensation Reserve will be transferred to: |
Credit side of Partners' Capital A/c Credit side of Realisation A/c Debit side of Realisation A/c Debit side of Partner's Capital A/c |
Credit side of Partners' Capital A/c |
The correct answer is Option (1) - Credit side of Partners' Capital A/c. Workman Compensation Reserve is an accumulated reserve of the firm against which no claim exists so all the reserve amount is transferred to partners account. Sometimes a firm may have accumulated profits not yet transferred to capital accounts of the partners. These are usually in the form of general reserve, reserve and/or Profit and Loss Account. These are distributed among the partners by transferring it to their capital current accounts in old profit sharing ratio. Similarly, if there are some accumulated losses in the form of a debit balance of profit and loss account and/or deferred revenue expenditure appearing in the balance sheet of the firm, they are also debited to partners capital A/c. |
