What is the effect on capital when debit balance of current account is transferred to capital account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Capital decreases

The direct answer is option A: capital decreases. A debit balance in the current account means the partner has withdrawn more than the amount credited to that current account; therefore the partner owes that amount to the firm. When this debit balance is transferred to the capital account, the partner's capital account is debited. A debit reduces the credit balance of capital, so capital decreases. Option B, capital increases, is opposite to the effect of a debit. Option C, assets increase, is unrelated because this transfer is between two partner-related accounts. Option D, liabilities decrease, is also not the direct effect; the entry changes the partner's capital balance. Do not confuse a debit balance with a credit balance: a credit balance would increase capital when transferred.
