At the time of dissolution, if an asset taken over by a partner is mistakenly recorded as cash received, what will be the effect?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The cash balance will be overstated and the partner’s capital account will not be debited

The correct entry for an asset taken over by a partner is: the partner’s capital account is debited and the Realisation Account is credited. If Cash Account is debited instead, cash is overstated even though no cash was received, and the required debit to the partner’s capital account is omitted. If the same amount is credited to the Realisation Account, the realisation profit generally remains unchanged; therefore, option C is also incorrect. Exam tip: Treat an asset taken over by a partner as an adjustment through the partner’s capital account, not as cash received.
