If a partner’s Capital Account has a credit balance of ₹40,000 and the partner takes over an asset worth ₹5,000, what will be the balance before payment?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Credit ₹35,000

The governing rule is that an asset taken over by a partner is debited to that partner’s Capital Account at the agreed value. The partner initially has a credit balance of ₹40,000, representing the amount payable by the firm. Taking an asset worth ₹5,000 reduces this claim because the partner has received part of the settlement in kind. Calculation: remaining credit balance = ₹40,000 − ₹5,000 = ₹35,000. Option B incorrectly adds the asset value, while option C ignores the existing credit balance and option D reverses the balance’s nature. Therefore, before any further cash payment, the Capital Account will show a credit balance of ₹35,000, so option A is correct.
