What is the entry for crediting the premium for goodwill to the old partners' capital accounts?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Premium for Goodwill A/c Dr. To Old Partners' Capital A/cs

Under the premium method, the new partner brings the agreed premium, which is credited to the Premium for Goodwill Account when received. That temporary account must then be closed by debiting it. The old partners' capital accounts are credited because they are the parties receiving compensation for the profit share sacrificed, and the credit is made in their sacrificing ratio. Thus the entry is Premium for Goodwill Account Dr. to Old Partners' Capital Accounts. Option B reverses the debit and credit logic. Option C records a different capital receipt, and option D concerns a separate goodwill or bank transaction rather than distribution of the premium.
