Which statement is correct when separate investment exists against Reserve Fund?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Distribution of reserve is separate and investment remains as asset

A reserve fund and the investment held against it are related in amount but different in accounting nature. The reserve fund is an accumulated appropriation of profit belonging to the old partners, while the separate investment is an asset owned by the firm. On reconstitution, the reserve is distributed or adjusted among the old partners, normally in their old profit-sharing ratio, and the investment continues to appear as an asset unless the partners specifically decide otherwise. Therefore choice A is correct.

The investment is not itself a loss, and it is not automatically transferred to the incoming partner. A reserve cannot be converted into a bank loan merely because a separate investment exists. Keeping the reserve adjustment separate from the investment asset prevents the two different accounting items from being confused.
