On the death of a partner, why is the partner’s share of accumulated profits up to the date of death added to the partner’s Capital Account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It is the partner’s share of the firm’s profits earned up to death

Accumulated profits, such as a general reserve or credit balance of the Profit and Loss Account, represent profits earned by the firm up to the partner’s death. The deceased partner’s share is credited to the partner’s Capital or Current Account because it becomes payable to the legal representative. Profit earned after death is not included in this share. Exam tip: accumulated profits are credited to partners’ accounts, while accumulated losses are debited in the old profit-sharing ratio.
