If the firm paid a partner's personal insurance premium of Rs 6,000, how should it be treated in the accounts?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Debit to partner's drawings

A partner's personal insurance is a personal expense, not a firm expense. When the firm pays such a personal cost on behalf of the partner it is treated as the partner's drawings. Accounting entry: Debit — Partner's Drawings ₹6,000; Credit — Bank/Cash ₹6,000. The closest distractor (B) is wrong because only expenses incurred for business operations are charged to business expense; a personal expense paid by the firm is treated as drawings. Options C and D are also incorrect since the payment does not increase capital or represent profit. Exam tip: first decide whether an expense is personal or business—personal payments by the firm are recorded as drawings.
