If a partner owes a loan to the firm, what is its effect in final settlement?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It will be recovered from partner

At dissolution, every asset and liability of the firm must be settled. A loan given by the firm to a partner is an amount receivable by the firm, not an amount payable to the partner. The partner has borrowed money from the firm, so the partner is responsible for returning it during the final settlement. This protects the firm’s creditors and partners by ensuring that all firm assets are collected.

Therefore, the amount is recovered from the partner, which is option A. It is not paid to the partner, because the direction of payment is opposite: the firm is the lender and the partner is the borrower. It does not automatically become a reserve or realisation profit. Any gain or loss from realisation is determined separately after considering assets, liabilities, and settlement expenses.
