If the firm returns ₹10,000 of capital to a partner, what entry will be made in the partner's capital account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It will be debited

Return of capital reduces the partner's capital. Since the capital account normally has a credit balance, a decrease is recorded by debiting the capital account and crediting cash/bank. Hence the capital account is debited. Option D (treated as drawings) is a common distractor: drawings are recorded in a separate drawings account, whereas a specified return of capital is recorded directly against the capital account. Exam tip: remember capital has a normal credit balance — reductions are shown by debits.
