Investment Fluctuation Reserve is ₹28000 and loss on investment is ₹37000. What is the extra loss?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹9000

The direct answer is Option A: the extra loss is ₹9,000. Investment Fluctuation Reserve is ₹28,000, while the loss on investment is ₹37,000. Calculate the uncovered amount step by step: ₹37,000 − ₹28,000 = ₹9,000. The reserve absorbs the first ₹28,000 of the investment loss. The remaining ₹9,000 is the extra loss that must be recognised separately and debited to the old partners in their old ratio. Option A is correct. Option B is wrong because ₹28,000 is only the reserve used against the loss, not the amount left over. Option C is wrong because ₹37,000 is the total investment loss, not the extra loss after using the reserve. Option D is wrong because the loss is greater than the reserve, leaving an uncovered balance. The reasoning is always: compare total loss with the reserve, use the reserve first, then calculate the excess. If total loss were equal to or below the reserve, there would be no extra loss of this type. Memory cue: excess loss over reserve is debited as the remaining loss.
