A partner takes over stock valued at ₹8,000 and also pays ₹2,000 cash to the firm. What is the net effect in his capital account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Debit ₹6,000

The governing concept is the net capital-account effect when a partner takes over an asset and pays part of the consideration in cash. Taking stock worth ₹8,000 is debited to the partner's capital account because the firm transfers an asset to him and reduces the amount payable to him. Cash of ₹2,000 paid by him is credited to his capital account because it increases the settlement received by the firm. The net debit is therefore ₹8,000 − ₹2,000 = ₹6,000, so option A is correct. ₹10,000 ignores the cash credit, ₹2,000 ignores the stock taken over, and a credit of ₹6,000 reverses the overall direction of the adjustment.
