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

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Cash balance will be overstated

When a partner takes over an asset, the firm does not receive cash. The correct entry debits the partner’s capital account and credits the Realisation Account. If the transaction is wrongly treated as a cash receipt, the Cash Account is debited and the cash balance is overstated. This error does not automatically increase the asset’s book value or reduce the firm’s liabilities. Exam tip: An asset taken over by a partner is adjusted through the partner’s account, not through Cash Account.
