If both interest on capital and interest on drawings are given in profit distribution how is net effect found?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Deduct interest on capital and add interest on drawings

Interest on capital and interest on drawings have opposite effects in the Profit and Loss Appropriation Account. Interest on capital is an amount allowed to partners, so it is an appropriation that reduces the profit remaining for distribution. Interest on drawings is charged to partners for using firm funds, so it is income to the firm and increases the amount available for distribution.

To find the combined net effect on divisible profit, subtract the total interest on capital and add the total interest on drawings. This is exactly the treatment stated in option A. The entries are not both deductions or both additions because their economic effects differ. They should not be ignored when the deed provides for them, though their amounts must be calculated first.
