A and B share profits in the ratio 3:2. A was entitled to a salary of ₹24,000, but it was omitted from the accounts. The profit has already been distributed. By what amount will B’s account be debited in the adjustment entry?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹9,600

Recording the omitted salary reduces divisible profit by ₹24,000, and this reduction is shared in the existing profit-sharing ratio of 3:2. B’s share is 2/5, so B’s debit is ₹24,000 × 2/5 = ₹9,600. ₹14,400 is the reduction in A’s profit share; after receiving the salary, A’s net adjustment is a credit of ₹24,000 − ₹14,400 = ₹9,600. Exam tip: For an omitted partner’s salary, first distribute the reduction in profit in the old profit-sharing ratio.
