At the time of dissolution, if the required entry for an asset taken over by a partner—debiting the partner’s Capital Account and crediting the Realisation Account—is not passed, what will be the effect?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The partner’s capital will be overstated and the realisation profit understated (or loss overstated).

When a partner takes over an asset, the correct entry is to debit the partner’s Capital Account and credit the Realisation Account. If this entry is omitted, the value of the asset taken over is not deducted from the partner’s capital, so the capital balance is overstated. The missing credit to the Realisation Account also understates the realisation profit or overstates the realisation loss. Option B states the reverse effect. Exam tip: For an asset taken over by a partner, remember—Partner’s Capital Dr. and Realisation Cr.
