On admission, bad debts are ₹10,000 and the old provision for doubtful debts is ₹6,000. No new provision is required. How much loss will be transferred to Revaluation Account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹4,000

The governing rule is that an existing provision is used to absorb the amount of bad debts before determining the additional loss. Bad debts total ₹10,000, while the old provision provides ₹6,000 of adjustment. The uncovered portion is therefore ₹10,000 − ₹6,000 = ₹4,000. This uncovered amount is the loss that must be debited to Revaluation Account. Thus option C is correct. Option A incorrectly adds the bad debts and provision, although the provision reduces the loss. Option B ignores the available provision, and option D treats the provision itself as the loss. Since no new provision is required, there is no further adjustment.
