If a partner withdrew firm cash for personal use and this was not recorded in the books, which account will be affected when recorded?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Partner's account will be debited

Withdrawal of firm cash for personal use is treated as 'drawings'. The usual journal entry is: Drawings A/c Dr; Cash/Bank A/c Cr. Hence, when recorded, the concerned partner's account is debited. Option B is wrong because crediting the partner's account would indicate an increase in the partner's liability or capital (opposite of a withdrawal). Option C is incorrect because drawings are not an expense charged to profit; they reduce the partner's capital/current balance, not the firm's profit directly. Option D is wrong — omission hides the effect but the correct entry will still debit the partner. Exam tip: Memorise the drawing entry: Drawings (or Partner's Current A/c) Dr, Cash/Bank Cr.
