The deed requires a partner to pay interest for delayed capital contribution. For whom is this interest a gain?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: For the firm

The direct answer is option A: the interest is a gain for the firm. If a partner brings capital late and the deed requires interest for the delay, that partner must pay the stated interest to compensate the firm for the period during which the promised capital was unavailable. The accounting direction is therefore from the concerned partner to the firm. Option A is correct because the firm receives the amount and benefits from the compensation. Option B is wrong because the delayed partner is the person who pays the interest, not the person who gains it. Option C is wrong because a bank is not involved merely because the firm has a capital contribution arrangement. Option D is wrong because customers neither pay nor receive this contractual interest and have no role in the partners’ capital obligations. This interest is distinct from interest allowed on capital: here the partner is charged because of delay. The exact rate and calculation depend on the deed. First identify the delayed amount, rate and delay period, then calculate the stipulated interest. Memory cue: delayed capital means partner pays, firm receives.
