Debtors amount to ₹1,50,000, and the existing provision for doubtful debts is ₹5,000. On the admission of a partner, a provision of 8% on debtors is required. What additional loss should be recorded in the Revaluation Account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹7,000

The required new provision is ₹1,50,000 × 8% = ₹12,000. Since ₹5,000 has already been provided, only the increase of ₹12,000 − ₹5,000 = ₹7,000 is recorded as a loss in the Revaluation Account. ₹12,000 represents the total new provision, not the additional loss. In such questions, compare the new provision with the existing provision and record only the difference.
