Why are partner drawings not recorded in capital account under fixed capital method?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because drawings are recorded in current account

Direct answer: Option A, because drawings are recorded in the Current Account. In the fixed capital method, the purpose is to keep the partner’s Capital Account at its agreed fixed amount. Drawings are personal withdrawals made by a partner during the year, so they are treated as a routine adjustment rather than a permanent change in fixed capital. Step by step: the partner takes cash or goods for personal use; the partner’s entitlement or current balance is reduced; the Drawings amount is posted to the debit side of the partner’s Current Account; the fixed Capital Account is left unchanged. Option A is correct. Option B, because drawings are income, is wrong: drawings are not income of the partner or the firm; they are withdrawals of firm resources. Option C, because drawings increase capital, is the opposite of the truth; drawings reduce the partner’s balance or claim. Option D, because drawings are bank loans, is wrong because a partner’s withdrawal is not automatically borrowing from a bank. Under a fluctuating capital method, drawings may be recorded directly in the Capital Account, which is why identifying the method is essential. Memory cue: fixed capital stays fixed; personal withdrawals move through current account.
