If interest on drawings of Rs 2,000 was omitted and A and B share profits equally, what is the net effect on A’s account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Debit of Rs 1,000

Interest on drawings is charged to the partner because the partner has used the firm’s funds for personal purposes. Therefore, A’s account must first be debited by Rs 2,000. However, when the omitted item is subsequently recorded, the firm’s profit available for distribution is increased by Rs 2,000. Since A and B share profits equally, A receives one-half of this increase, or Rs 1,000, through his profit share. The combined effect on A is therefore a debit of Rs 2,000 minus a credit of Rs 1,000, which equals a net debit of Rs 1,000. Option B ignores A’s benefit from the increased profit, while option C reverses the net direction and option D ignores both effects.
