If the partnership deed gives separate interest rates for loan and capital, which rate applies to a partner's loan?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rate written for loan

The governing concept is that a partner's loan and the partner's capital are separate accounting relationships. Capital represents the partner's contribution to the firm's ownership, whereas a loan is an amount borrowed by the firm and repayable according to its terms. If the deed specifies one rate for capital and another for loans, the specific clause governing the loan must be applied to the loan balance. Thus option A is correct. The capital rate cannot be substituted merely because the lender is also a partner. The profit-sharing ratio is used for dividing profit, not for calculating loan interest, and zero interest would ignore an express contractual rate.
