On the death of a partner, how is the partner’s share of accumulated profits, such as the general reserve, treated in the partner’s account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Credited to the deceased partner’s capital account

General reserve and other accumulated profits are distributed among all partners in the old profit-sharing ratio. Therefore, the deceased partner’s share is credited to the deceased partner’s capital account, increasing the amount payable to the legal representative. In contrast, accumulated losses or a debit balance are deducted from the partner’s account. Exam tip: remember the entry as ‘Debit reserve, credit partners’ capital accounts.’
