When interest on drawings is credited to the Profit and Loss Appropriation Account, what happens in the partner's account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Partner's account is debited

The governing concept is the dual effect of interest on drawings. Such interest is income for the firm, so it is credited to the Profit and Loss Appropriation Account. At the same time, the amount is recoverable from the partner because the partner has used firm funds for personal drawings. The partner’s account must therefore be debited, recording the amount payable by or chargeable to that partner. Hence option B is correct. Option A reverses the personal-account effect, option C ignores the second entry, and option D involves a loan account that is unrelated to ordinary drawings. The complete entry is: Partner’s Capital or Current Account Dr. to Profit and Loss Appropriation Account.
