If a partner takes over stock worth ₹10,000 and also pays ₹2,000 in cash to the firm, what is the net effect on the partner’s Capital Account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Debit ₹8,000

The governing rule is that an asset taken over by a partner is debited to that partner’s Capital Account at the agreed value, because the partner receives an asset from the firm. Cash paid by the partner to the firm is credited to the partner’s Capital Account because it settles part of the amount due. Thus, the net debit is ₹10,000 − ₹2,000 = ₹8,000. A debit of ₹12,000 would ignore the cash payment, while a credit treatment reverses the accounting effect. A debit of ₹2,000 considers only the cash and ignores the stock. Therefore, the partner’s Capital Account has a net debit of ₹8,000, making option A correct.
