If A’s capital account shows a debit balance, how is it generally understood in examinations?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A has withdrawn more than his claim

The governing concept is the meaning of a debit balance in a partner’s capital account. A credit balance normally represents the firm’s net amount payable to the partner, whereas a debit balance indicates that the partner’s account has been reduced below zero or that an amount is recoverable from the partner. In examination language, this is generally interpreted as the partner having withdrawn more than the amount standing to his credit, producing an overdrawn capital position. Therefore, option A is correct. Additional capital would normally create a credit, not a debit. The other choices do not logically follow: a debit balance does not mean the firm gave nothing or that the partner can never receive future profits.
