If in past profits A received ₹2,000 in excess and B received ₹2,000 less, what is the final adjustment entry?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Debit A account and credit B account

An adjustment of past profits is made by taking back the excess from the partner who was overpaid and giving it to the underpaid partner. A was overpaid by ₹2,000, so A is debited (to show the amount due back) and B is credited. Option B is the reverse and therefore incorrect. Options C and D are incorrect because debiting or crediting both accounts does not effect the required transfer. Exam tip: Debit the partner who received excess; credit the partner who received less.
