On a partner’s death, how is the deceased partner’s share of accumulated profits recorded in the partner’s capital account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Credited to the capital account, increasing its balance

Accumulated profits, such as a general reserve or a credit balance in the Profit and Loss Account, are distributed among the partners in their profit-sharing ratio. The deceased partner’s share is credited to the partner’s capital account, increasing the amount payable to the deceased partner’s legal representative. In contrast, accumulated losses are debited and reduce the capital balance. Exam tip: accumulated profit or reserve is credited; accumulated loss is debited.
