If the firm paid a partner's personal expense and it was not recorded, what is the correct adjustment?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Debit partner's account

Payment of a partner's personal expense by the firm is treated as the partner's drawings. Drawings are recorded by debiting the partner's account (or drawings account) and crediting cash/bank. Therefore the correct adjustment is to debit the partner's account. Option A is the opposite entry; option C wrongly debits the capital account (capital is separate from drawings); option D is incorrect because cash/bank is credited when payment is made. Exam tip: Always treat firm-paid personal expenses of a partner as drawings — debit the partner (drawings) account, credit cash/bank.
