Profit and Loss debit balance of ₹54,000 was written off in the capital ratio 5:4 instead of the old ratio 2:1. What was the correct effect on the second partner?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹6,000 अधिक डेबिट

An accumulated debit balance is an old-period loss and should be borne in the old profit-sharing ratio of 2:1. The second partner’s correct share is therefore ₹54,000 × 1/3 = ₹18,000. Under the incorrect capital ratio of 5:4, the second partner was charged 4/9 of ₹54,000, which is ₹24,000. Comparing the two amounts, the excess debit is ₹24,000 − ₹18,000 = ₹6,000. Thus the second partner was debited ₹6,000 more than the correct amount, so option A is correct. The other choices either reverse the difference, confuse the correct share with the error, or incorrectly claim that both ratios produce the same result.
