Investment Fluctuation Reserve is ₹50000. Book value of investments is ₹200000 and market value is ₹182000. What amount will be distributed among old partners?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹32000

The direct answer is ₹32,000, option B. Investment Fluctuation Reserve is created to cover a fall in the value of investments. First find the loss: book value ₹2,00,000 minus market value ₹1,82,000 equals ₹18,000. This loss uses ₹18,000 of the reserve. Therefore, the unused reserve is ₹50,000 − ₹18,000 = ₹32,000, and this balance is distributed among the old partners in their old profit-sharing ratio. Option A, ₹18,000, is only the loss amount, not the remaining reserve. Option B, ₹32,000, is correct because it is the balance after adjustment. Option C, ₹50,000, ignores the investment loss completely. Option D, zero, would be correct only if the loss equalled or exceeded the reserve. Exam cue: subtract the investment loss from the reserve before distributing the balance.
