Workmen Compensation Reserve is ₹40,000 and the claim is also ₹40,000. How much will be distributed among the old partners?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Zero

The governing concept is that a specific reserve must first be used against the liability or claim for which it was created. Here, Workmen Compensation Reserve equals ₹40,000 and the actual claim also equals ₹40,000. Calculation: reserve available ₹40,000 − claim ₹40,000 = surplus nil. Since no balance remains after meeting the claim, nothing can be transferred to or distributed among the old partners. Therefore, option A is correct. The full reserve cannot be distributed because the claim uses it completely. Option C incorrectly adds the reserve and claim, while option D assumes an unsupported partial adjustment.
