If regular drawings are treated as permanent capital withdrawal under the fixed capital method, what type of error occurs?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The capital account will be wrongly reduced and the current account will not be debited correctly

The governing distinction is between fixed capital and current accounts. Under the fixed capital method, the capital account normally remains unchanged by routine items such as drawings, interest, salary and share of profit or loss. Regular drawings should therefore be debited to the partner's current account. If they are instead treated as a permanent withdrawal from capital, the capital account is reduced incorrectly and the current account fails to show the required debit. Thus, option A is correct. Option B states the opposite effect, option C introduces an unrelated duplicate bank entry, and option D is incorrect because the accounting classification and capital balance are both misstated. The firm's total cash may still be reduced correctly, but the partner-account presentation is wrong.
