At the time of admission of a new partner, the General Reserve of ₹36,000 is distributed among the old partners. What will be the balance of General Reserve in the balance sheet after reconstitution?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Zero

General Reserve represents accumulated profits belonging to the old partners. When the entire reserve is transferred to the old partners’ capital or current accounts, the reserve account is debited and closed. Therefore, its balance in the balance sheet is zero. ₹18,000 would be possible only if half the reserve were distributed, but the question states that the entire amount is distributed. Exam tip: A reserve that is fully distributed has a nil balance after reconstitution.
