If the deed treats a partner’s personal expense as drawings, which account will be debited when the firm pays it?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Drawings Account of the concerned partner

A personal expense belongs to the partner, not to the business. When the firm pays that expense on the partner’s behalf, the payment is treated as a withdrawal of the partner’s resources from the firm. The concerned partner’s Drawings Account is therefore debited, and Cash or Bank is credited for the actual payment. Option A is correct. The payment is not a sales transaction, so Sales Account is irrelevant; it does not create a transfer to General Reserve; and it does not represent a loan unless the facts specifically establish a separate lending arrangement. Recording it as drawings prevents the firm’s business expenses and the partner’s private consumption from being mixed.
