During the dissolution of a firm, if the cash received from the sale of an asset is credited to a partner’s Capital Account instead of the Realisation Account, what will be the effect?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Both the Realisation Account and the partner’s Capital Account will be misstated

The correct entry for cash received from the sale of an asset is to debit Bank and credit the Realisation Account. If the partner’s Capital Account is credited instead, the sale proceeds will be omitted from the Realisation Account, while the partner’s capital will be overstated. Thus, both the profit or loss on realisation and the partner’s capital balance will be misstated. The bank balance itself remains correct because the cash was actually received. Exam tip: sale proceeds of an asset are credited to the Realisation Account, not directly to a partner’s Capital Account.
