A and B share profits and losses in the ratio of 9:4. The Contingency Reserve is ₹78,000, whereas the actual liability is ₹91,000. What amount of the additional loss will be debited to B’s account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹4,000

The shortfall between the actual liability and the Contingency Reserve is ₹91,000 − ₹78,000 = ₹13,000. This additional loss is shared by A and B in the ratio 9:4. Therefore, B’s share = ₹13,000 × 4/13 = ₹4,000. ₹13,000 is the total additional loss, not B’s share alone. Exam tip: First calculate the excess liability over the reserve, and then apply the concerned partner’s profit-sharing fraction.
