If a partner's drawings are mistakenly added to profit while distributing profits, what will be the effect?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Profit will be overstated

Drawings are withdrawals by a partner, not income. If drawings are mistakenly added to profit, the profit figure becomes overstated. That will lead to incorrect profit sharing and wrong capital/reserve balances. The closest distractor C is wrong because adding drawings does not understate profit — under normal treatment drawings reduce partner capital but are not added to profit. Exam tip: Always post drawings to the partner’s drawings/capital account first and ensure only true net profit enters the profit appropriation statement.
