If profit is Rs 55,000, interest on drawings is Rs 5,000 and salary is Rs 10,000, what is the distributable profit?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rs 50,000

The governing concept is determination of the residual or distributable profit after considering partnership appropriations. Interest on drawings is income earned by the firm from a partner, so it increases the amount available for distribution. Partner salary is an appropriation of profit and must be deducted before the remaining profit is divided. Therefore, distributable profit = Rs 55,000 + Rs 5,000 − Rs 10,000 = Rs 50,000. Option A is correct. Option B adds the salary instead of deducting it, while option C deducts both items and ignores that interest on drawings is firm income. Option D has no valid calculation basis. This answer assumes the figures supplied are the relevant profit and adjustments.
